Property Panel

The Property Panel helps to customize the way components appear or behave. When a component is selected on the page, the Property Panel will reflect the selection by displaying the different properties associated with the selected component.

Changing the properties values is done by using various drop-down menus and edit boxes. If no component is selected, then the property panel will appear blank with no options to choose from.

Another way to change a property is select a value from a list of possible choices. For example, the Color property has a down arrow button. Clicking on the down arrow button will display a list of colors that can be selected. Any property that has a list of choices can also be double-clicked (instead of clicking on the down arrow button) to advance to the next item in the list.
