Attribute Fields

Attribute Fields are a special group of fields which are imported into the Data Table. These Attribute Fields are Design Attributes that are imported from Development Network and Stope layers and linked to the Data Table. During the Tunnel and Stope generation processes, Table Solids Fields are populated with the data from the design centrelines and the stope solids. These attributes are essential for building and running the schedule.

  1. In the Table Fields, Attribute Fields are automatically shown under the Imported folder:

  1. Attribute that sync to the Design Layer are highlighted in the Properties Panel:

  1. If you need to modify an Attribute Field it is recommended that this is done in the Development Network or Stope Layer.

    On the Design right-click menu, in the Project Explorer: Select Setup | Attributes.

  1. On the Development Network tab of the Scenario Settings:

    1. Map the Design Attributes of the Development Network and the Stope Layers to the Centreline Field Attributes.

    2. Map the Design Attributes of the Output Triangulation Development Network (created during the Generate Tunnels process) to the Development Solid Field Attributes.

      These attributes will be synced to the Data Table.


      Scenario Settings: Development Network

Note: If you remove a Data Table field created as a result of Attribute Field Mapping, that field will be recreated every time the Field Attribute Mappings are synchronized with the Data Table and every time the model is reopened (if the mapping still exists in any scenario).

This is intended behaviour because the Attribute which caused the creation of the field still exists and is still linked in the Field Attribute Mappings. To prevent an Attribute Field from being recreated you must ensure that the attribute of the same name as the field is unticked in the Field Attribute Mappings of every scenario in the project.
