 The value for Attribute 'Metaonly' must be numeric.

Cause

Somehow, a non-numeric value has been assigned to a numeric attribute. Perhaps this was a result of something you did in typescript, a button script, or assignment to the attribute in one of your own meta-inference algorithms. It would be unusual for this to happen under normal usage.

Remedies

You can clear the attribute from the typescript window by typing:

«att» «obj»:

With nothing following the colon, where «att» is the attribute name and «obj» is the identifier of the object. For example:

Metaonly Selector:

More important that just remedying this once, you probably want to figure out how it got changed to a non-numeric value in the first place. It may indicate a bug in your meta-inference logic, for example.
