Object Properties

Every object in Building Operation has a lot of different properties. There are three ways to access the properties of a selected object in WorkStation:

  • Properties tab

  • Properties Dialog box

  • Properties grid

All three methods displays the same properties.

Properties can be of two different types: read only and read/write. Read only properties are dimmed and cannot be changed. Read/write properties can be changed by the operator.

The properties are sorted under different tabs in the properties tab/dialog/grid. The number of tabs depends on the object. Some object have a lot of properties and tabs, others have only one tab with only a few properties.
