Symbolic Map

You can specify the following properties that affect what information is included when a symbolic map is generated:
Alternate Map Name
Enter or modify an alternate map name. This alternate map name will appear in the generated symbolic map. Symbolic map names must abide by the following conventions:
  • First character must be alphabetic, A-Z or a-z
  • Characters must come from the following set: A-Z, a-z, 0-9, $, @, #, - (hyphen) and _ (underscore)
  • Length may not exceed 30 characters
Attention: Modifications made to this property will show up in the Source Page as a comment that looks similar to the following:
*RDZ*DSECT3 altName mapName
where altName is the alternate map name set in Properties and mapName is the name of the map. Modifying or removing this alternate name comment in the Source Page does not reliably update in the Properties, therefore it is best to use Map Properties when modifying the alternate map name in any way.
Alternate Structure Starting Level
Enter or modify an alternate structure starting number. This value must be between 01 - 49, inclusive. The alternate structure start level will define the level at which the structure will start in the generated symbolic map.
Attention: Modifications made to this property will show up in the Source Page as a comment that looks similar to the following:
*RDZ*DSECT4 altLvl originalLvl mapName
where altLvl is the alternate structure start level set in Properties, originalLvl is the original structure start level, and mapName is the map name. Modifying or removing this alternate name comment in the Source Page does not reliably update in the Properties, therefore it is best to use Map Properties when modifying the alternate structure start level in any way.
