10<h1>Property Editing</h1>
11<p>This is for editing the <a href="../ui/property/index.html">properties</a> of the object that has been selected in <a href="../ui/object_view/index.html">Object View</a>.</p>
12<p>Property Editing supports Undo (Ctrl+Z ) and Redo (Ctrl+Y).</p>
13<h2>Editing Multiple Objects at Same Time</h2>
14<p>You can edit more than one object at the same time by selecting multiple objects from <a href="../ui/object_view/index.html#view_mode">Schematic Display</a> or one of the <a href="../ui/object_view/index.html#view_mode">various other view modes</a> of Object View. </p>
15<p>To select multiple objects, hold down the Ctrl key while selecting individual objects, or use the mouse and the Shift key to select a range.</p>

17<p>If multiple objects have been selected, when you open the Property panel and edit properties, those edits will be applied to all of the selected objects. </p>
18<h2>Copy &amp; Paste in Property Categories</h2>
19<p>You can copy &amp; paste items in categories in the <a href="../ui/property/index.html">Property window</a></p>
20<p>The following methods have been prepared for copy &amp; paste operations:</p>
21<ul>
22  <li>The right-click menu of the Properties item in the <B>Property</B> window.<br />
23    <p class="toolbar_list"><img src="images/property_copy_menu.png" alt="The Properties right-click menu" /></p>
24  </li>
25  <li>The copy &amp; paste icon in the top-right part of the <B>Property</B> window.<br />
26    <p class="toolbar_list"><img src="images/property_copy_menu01.png" alt="The Properties right-click menu" /></p>
27  </li>
28</ul>
29<p class="new_hint">If the selected category contains sub-categories, the contents of those sub-categories will be copied as well.<br /> When the information is pasted, the settings of the copied sub-categories will also be pasted.</p>
30<p><a name="object_pin" id="object_pin"></a></p>
31<h2>Opening Multiple Property Windows at the Same Time</h2>
32<p>If you want to open more than one <B>Property </B>window at the same time, press the Pushpin button in the top-left part of the window.</p>
33<p>When you press the Pushpin button the selected objects are fixed, so now you can open another <B>Property </B>window or some other window.</p>
