When an instance is created for a class with a slot of Value Type Symbol, the entry field corresponding to the slot is a Symbol entry field. It takes values from the list of symbols created for the slot.

To create the value of the slot, click on the list and double-click to select your choice.
To change the value of the slot, make a different choice from the list.
To remove the value of the slot, select the blank value at the top of the list.
Multiple Cardinality
The entry field corresponding to a slot of value type Symbol with Cardinality Multiple shows a display list with three buttons. This field takes a list of symbol values. If the at most value is set in the Cardinality field for the slot, there is a limit on the number of values you can enter.
