Adaptation of a single Feature Type requires clicking on that Feature Type in the Selector Control. For Feature Type adaptation to occur the Adaptation must be editable; e.g. the Adaptation may NOT be approved and the logged on user must “own” the Adaptation.
In the control, these Adaptations are displayed with Green names. The list on the right of the Selector will display the names of all Feature Types included in the Adaptation.
When a Feature Type is editable, the Feature Type Modification Module will look similar to the image to the right. Here, the Name, Default Subtype (if applicable), Container, and Default Geometry may be modified. The Definition and Permissible Geometries are fixed.
If any of the properties of the Feature Type are changed, clicking ‘Save Changes to the Feature’ will record the changes. If the name is changed, the change will be displayed in the list box on the right of the Selector.
The ‘Discard Changes’ button will close the module and retain the Feature Type in its previous state. The ‘Show Feature Attributes’ button and the ‘Collapse Attribute List’ button begin the process of adaptation of the attributes associated with the module.
