Connector Entity Editor

Use the Connector Entity Editor to quickly view and modify attributes assigned to connector(s).

The Connector Entity Editor opens when you select single or multiple connectors from the Connector Entity Browser. Connector attributes are displayed in the Name column, and the values associated with each attribute are displayed in the Value column. The attributes that display in gray text, cannot be edited.

Once you modify a connector in the Connector Entity Editor, its state changes to modified (blue ). A modified state indicates that the representation is not the exact same for the new representation, due to the changes you made. To apply these changes you must rerealize the connector.

For example, assume you have an acm (general) connector with a diameter of 10. If you modify this connector in the Connector Entity Editor to have a constant thickness, edited the diameter, and applied an RBE3 radius of 3, the changes will not be applied until the connector is rerealized.

If you modify the Config Name assigned to a connector in the Connector Entity Editor, a new set of attributes will be assigned. Such a modification will change the connector's state to unrealized (yellow

), and the connector will be placed in a new folder.
