Use attribute type groups to create a structure for your attribute types. With the groups, users can find the required attributes when modeling. If you do not use groups, all unstructured attributes are displayed at the top level when users edit attributes.
You can use attribute type groups to organize various attribute types of your choice. For example, you can group project-specific attribute types, which enables you to edit them efficiently.
