Properties
==========
.. FIXME: duplicate from tutorial/properties.rst
Access control is achieved through `properties`.
.. glossary::
property
A property is a state (`disabled`, `mandatory`, `frozen`, `hidden`...)
of a family or a variable.
These properties change the usual behavior of a variable or family.
The properties can be defined permanently or according to the result of a calculation.
There are two main properties.
.. _hidden:
Hidden variable
---------------
A `hidden` variable is a variable whose value cannot be modified by the :term:`operator`.
This could be an internal variable used by the :term:`integrator` that is not supposed to change.
Or a variable that only makes sense in a particular context. Therefore, this variable can be hidden and then unhidden depending on the context.
.. _disabled:
Disabled variable
-----------------
A `disabled` variable is a variable that will not be accessible to any of the actors (:term:`integrator` and :term:`operator`).
This property is generally used dynamically to remove access to the variable depending on the context.
