  • Description:

    A Dialog is open with all properties of the element.

    Mouse:
    The nearest element is highlighted.
    The properies dialog of the highlighted element is opened.
    It is switched to an element with the identical location.
    Basic editing: Polygon and path elements can be edited as row data only.

    You get a different dialog for different types of elements. Even for same type of element you may get a different dialog, depending on the shape. A polygon with a circular shape will result in a other dialog than a non circular polygon. And the field "datatype" will only appear if datatypes are used in the design.
