After adding the item types to the Definition window, you can now add attributes for some or all of the item types.

When you select an item from the Definitions window, the items attributes are displayed in the Attribute Explorer. By default, when you add an item type to the Definitions window, if the selected items attributes contain the attribute Name then that attribute is automatically added to the Query Attributes tab. For example, selecting Instrument in the Definitions window displays the instrument attributes and automatically adds the attribute Instrument Name to the Query Attributes tab. There are some Item types that do not have an identifying name.

SHARED Tip The attribute inserted is referenced as the Specific Item Type Identifier.
