The following table describes your attribute editing configuration options for each field, separated into these categories:

• Can Editable setting be changed?

  • This column answers the question, “Am I allowed to add or remove this field from the Attribute Editor?” The default for the Editable tag is Editable=“false”. If the table below states “Yes,” then you are allowed to add the tag Editable=“true” to that field, if desired. It then appears in the Attribute Editor in the application. Editable fields are inherently Viewable, even if the Viewable setting is not included in the Schema.xml.

• Can Viewable setting be changed?

  • This column answers the question, “Am I allowed to add or remove this field from being viewed in the Attribute Editor?” To do so, add the tag Viewable=“true”. Viewable fields do not have to be Editable. In other words, you can provide them to your users in a read-only mode. A “No” in the table below means the value from that field is presented to the user in another, more meaningful way than the raw data contained in the field, and you cannot change its viewable setting.

• Are attributes imported from GIS?

  • A “Yes” in the table below means the data originate from the GIS. These fields should have a tag of Import=“true”, and that tag should not be changed in the Schema.xml.

  • A “No” in the table below means the field is populated while working in the application.

• Data Type

  • Because the default data type is “string”, notice that most of the entries in the table below state “Not Required.” This is because if you do not add a DataType tag, it uses the default string type.

• Validation Options

  • Validation Options only apply to Editable fields. Because most of the fields are managed by the application, notice that most options in the table below state “None.”

• Coded Domain Name

  • This lists the domain provided in the default Schema.xml.

• Notes

  • This column includes other information for that field.
