The main part of the dialog is the event grid. The grid rows stand for the events, and the grid columns for their parameters.

These parameters can be changed by using Event Editor for each view one by one, but with the manager you can do it much more quickly.

The grid allows you to modify the following properties:

•	Event The name of the event.

•	Preserved Suppresses event deletion after event become expired.

•	Enabled Enables or disables event right after creation.

•	Event Type Displays event type (Transient or Recurrent). Read-only.

•	Start Time and End Time Displays start and end execution times for recurrent events. Read-only.

•	Generate Includes the event to the default selection in the Database Generation and Database Modification tools.

Searching an event in the list

If your diagram contains large number of events, it may be important to search for an event in a most easy way. To find an event quickly by its name, click the Find button () at the dialog toolbar. The Find Name dialog will appear. Type in the name of an event to find and click OK. If the event is found the grid cursor positions on the appropriate row.

Running the Event Editor

If you want to change some parameters of the event, select the appropriate event in the dialog and click the Edit button () of the dialog toolbar. The Event Editor will appear, where you can edit all the parameters for the selected event.
