TASK OVERVIEW
Supplying Values for Box and Application Attributes
• A default value for some attributes--a value that ENABLE
supplies for some attributes with null starting values when
you do not supply a current or override value.
ENABLE supplies a default value when an object is added. A
default value only applies to the added object.
Figure 2-1 illustrates the partial contents of the attribute
table when you start ENABLE.

Figure 2-1. Attribute Table When You Start ENABLE
When ENABLE adds an object to the object table, it uses the
contents of the attribute table to determine the description of
the object. ENABLE evaluates the contents of the attribute table
as follows:
1. Attributes for which you have supplied override values--
ENABLE uses these values to determine the object's
description.
2. Attributes for which you have not supplied override values,
but for which you have supplied current values--ENABLE uses
the the current values to determine the object's
description.
3. Attributes for which you have supplied neither current nor
override values--ENABLE uses the starting values to determine
the object's description.
