The object table is used to list one or more types of objects in a modeling environment. For example, a type of entities like link, center_marker or properties like mass, inertia can be selectively listed and displayed using this command. The objects listed can be edited, or copied as required.

The selected cell properties are edited by using this command.

Format:

object_table_name =	a exisitng GI_otable
strings =	string
action =	col_action

Example:

2.	The parameter ‘strings’ will replace all the contents in the selected cells with the new contents specified.

3.	The mode of insertion of the new row contents depends on the choices like ‘append’, ‘prefix’, or ‘replace’ denoted by the parameter ‘action’.
