Property Panel

The property panel is a powerful editing tool that you can use to
perform quick edits and tag assignments by simply clicking on an
graphic object. You can modify the property values of graphic objects
and ActiveX controls, and assign tags and expressions to objects. Any
edits you make in the property panel are applied immediately.

Follow these steps to open the property panel.

open, Select View>Property
Panel.

The property panel will
appear unavailable because
