Change free-form texts

You can change the content of free-form texts any way you want.

Warning

Free-form texts are not saved in groups and are thus not protected by access privileges for groups. Therefore, it is possible to have reports output the free-form texts of models for which the person running the report does not have read privileges. Therefore, remember not to include confidential information in free-form texts but to use model and object attributes for that.

Procedure

  1. In the model window, click the free-form text twice. Alternatively, you can click the free-form text and then press the F2 key.
  2. Use the arrow keys to select the text area you want to overwrite.
  3. Overwrite the text area you want to modify.
  4. Click next to the text box to end the input.

The free-form text is modified.
