Attribute Editor Rework
Saturday, June 17, 2023
Concept 1
Attribute editors should be able to display linking information as well as provide a way to add/break links. The following is a concept demonstrating roughly how the interface could appear:
The word This would pertain to the attribute associated with the editor. So, from the concept above, that would be the Fill attribute. The path above This informs the user what This is linked to. The 3 paths underneath inform the user which attributes are linked to This and are, therefore, dependent on it.
The icon in the top right corner would be for a button that when clicked would break the link relationship between This and the attribute it's linked to.
The concept does not cover how link adding will work.
Concept 2
The following is a more comprehensive concept detailing a redesigned attribute editor interface capable of editing the new attribute features like linking, overriding, and command scripts.
