Set up properties
Use the Property Panel’s Properties tab to set up the properties of the selected object or
objects.
You can keep the Property Panel open as you work in the Graphics editor. You can drag
the panel’s borders to make the Property Panel larger or smaller.
For more information about using the Property Panel to set up an object’s properties, see
Help.
Assign tags and expressions to an object’s connections
Use the Property Panel’s Connections tab to assign tags or expressions to the selected
object’s connections. If multiple objects are selected the tab is blank, because you can
assign tags or expressions to only one object at a time.
How values are updated
The arrows indicate the direction in which the data flows between the connection and the
data source:
If only one object is
selected, this box
shows the object’s
name and type.
If a group object is
selected, click this
button to edit the
properties of the
objects within the
group.
