4.4 Properties

The Properties tab is located in the Sidebar. The tab is dynamic in that the content will change depending on which of the four object types is chosen in the selection process.

Object properties can be accessed and modified by executing the Properties command in one of four ways:

1) Left-click the Properties button in the Tools panel on the Home tab of the Ribbonbar.
