This idea has been merged into another idea. To comment or vote on this idea, please visit APPSERVER-I-239 Modify in runtime the text for an attribute with Data type Internationalized String.

Allow Writing the Attribute Description at runtime.

The Attribute description is used by default for an event log when writing to it from the HMI. I don't want to have to import this field for every attribute that could get logged in this way. Allow it to be set with a script at runtime so it can be described with a specific description rather than a generic one for the template.

    I merged the idea with https://products.feedback.aveva.com/ideas/APPSERVER-I-239 as they are related. The fact that the description is an Internationalized String is what prevents runtime modification today. If you have no need for localising it to a different language, you can actually change the type in runtime and modify it:

    Me.Attribute.Description.Type = "MXString";

    Me.Attribute.Description = "New description";
