Adding an Expose Element

You use exposed attributes to make certain attributes of a component accessible from outside Graphics Editor.

For more information, see the Exposed Attributes section.

To add an Expose object:

  1. In Graphics Editor, in the Properties pane, right-click the object with the attribute you want to expose, point to New, and then click Expose.
  2. In the Objects pane, in the component tree structure, select the new Expose element and change the name from My____ to a more descriptive name.
  3. In the Properties pane, click the ExposedAttribute box, and select the attribute you want to expose from the drop-down list.

If you select the object containing the exposed attribute in the Objects pane, the exposed attribute is displayed in the Properties pane.
