Go back to Page 1 and edit P1_X. You'll notice that it now has more
available options and some new regions. Figure 2-17shows the new

Figure 2-17. Item with Is Visible standard attribute enabled
If a standard attribute option is changed while a plug-in is already in use, the option is still part of
the APEX object but not available for a developer to modify. For example, in the previous example, you
enabled the Is Visible Widget option. Enabling this attribute allows you to enter a label for the P1_X item.
If you entered a label for P1_X, and then disabled the Is Visible Widget option in the plug-in, the label
would disappear from the P1_X item edit page. The label would still exist in the underlying table that
stores P1_X information. It is important to remember this when modifying standard attributes once a
plug-in has been used within an application.
