Properties

This section describes how to quickly access and edit information on layout sheets, views, 2D geometry, dress-up elements, annotations and dimensions in the Properties dialog box, which is available via the Edit > Properties contextual command.

Note that the properties of most objects (dimensions, annotations, dress-up and so on) are edited exactly as in the Drafting workbench. For this reason, most tasks in this section of the documentation provide links to the Interactive Drafting User's Guide. As such, the information detailed in these tasks is presented in a Drafting context. You should note that the Interactive Drafting User's Guide contains images that correspond to the Drafting workbench and therefore illustrate geometry in an environment that is different from the 2D Layout for 3D Design environment (symbols and background color, for example).
