Description
The SetDescription command allows you to associate a short or long description with a scenario or object within a scenario. The description can be used to provide background information about an object or to log additional information about an object. {Type} can be Long or Short.
The characters \n and \t can be used in the Long Description and will be translated to a newline and tab, respectively. Alternatively, to set a multi-line Long Description enter each line as a separate quoted string. See example below.
If the description {Type} is Long, then the following {Option} can be used:
| {Option} | Description |
|---|---|
| Extend | If this option is used then the "<Description>" will be appended to the existing Long Description. |
| File | If this option is used then the "<Description>" must be a filename. The Long Description will be set to the data in the file. |
