Attributes

Attributes define the types of data that can be attached to entities. An attribute contains an attribute name and an attribute value pair, both of which may be viewed in the Attribute Table under the Entity Type Tabs the attribute is associated with, unless the attribute is a reserved attribute.

There are three types of attributes: default attributes, user-defined attributes and reserved attributes. The prior two are created by either the system or the users to allow for easier access to certain existing entity and values, by referencing using the query.Get function. The last one is used to perform certain program functions and thus cannot be referenced.
