A Data Set (DTSE element) is a grouping of DATA elements, holding any catalogue data not stored more specifically elsewhere and which is required for use in MODEL or DRAW. Refer to Creating Datasets in PARAGON for further information of a Data Set.

Select Create > Data Set from the main menu to display the Create DTSE window.

Enter a Name to be assigned to the new Data Set.

Click OK to create a Data Set (DTSE element) and display the Catalogue Property Definitions window.

The Catalogue Property Definitions window allows the user to create (or modify) a catalogue properties dataset.

The upper part of the window allows the user to specify the details for a single property, while the lower part displays a list of all of the properties that are currently defined. When modifying a dataset, the CE option reinitialises the window to modify the DTSE element currently selected in the Members window (see Specification List). The name of the dataset to be modified is displayed adjacent to the CE option. For a detailed list of definitions refer to the Catalogue and Specifications Reference Manual.

Close the window by clicking the X on the top right.

To return to the Catalogue Property Definitions window select Modify > Data Set from the main window drop-down.
