ShowAskAttribute

Command ShowAskAttribute <objectClass>

(new to 4.0)

The AskAttribute command controls which attributes display on the object window or attribute panel. These can be changed by selecting Object->Attribute... from the menus. These settings are stored with an Analytica model. The ShowAskAttribute provides access to the current settings.

The command takes a single argument, which is the class of an object (variable, chance, decision, index, function, constant, module, library, etc). It returns a list of the attributes that should be shown for that object.

Example

The following is a view of the typescript window:

Untitled> ShowAskAttribute Variable
[Class,Identifier,Title,Units,Description,Definition,Inputs,Outputs,Domain]
