The Global Personal Property Editor allows you to provide information relating to a Global Personal Property in the Unit of Learning (UoL). The Global Personal Property Editor is shown when a Global Personal Property is selected in the Properties Editor Panel. For information on how to add, delete or rename a Property or Property Group please refer to that section.
The Global Personal Property Editor Panel
Existing | Select this option when this refers to a property already declared (e.g. in another unit-of-learning, or in the global dossier) to the knowledge of the author. The property is referred to with href, specifying an absolute URI. |
HREF | If the Existing option is selected, enter an absolute URI. |
Global Definition | Select this option when this refers to a global definition which can be used to declare and define global properties. Global properties can be defined once and can never be changed from a declaration within the context of a learning design (only outside in the database where the properties reside). |
URI | If the Global Definition option is selected, enter an absolute URI. |
Data Type | This is where the datatype is provided. The value is set with the attribute containing a fixed set of predefined datatypes of string, boolean, integer, uri, datetime, file, real, text and other. |
Metadata | Add Metadata for the Property. |
Initial Value | The initial value of the property is set to the value of this element when specified. When this value isn't specified the initial value is '<no value>'. |
Restrictions | Zero or more restrictions of different type may be set on the property-values, meaning that the property-value is valid when it is of the specified data type and its value is within the specified restriction rules. Zero or more restrictions can be specified. Use the New button to add a new Restriction type. Edit the type from the drop-down box in the table and enter a value for it in the table. Use the Remove button to remove a Restriction type. Use the Up button to move a Restriction type up in the table. Use the Down button to move a Restriction type down in the table. |
