Using the Properties window in the DataWindow painter

Each part of the DataWindow object (such as text, columns, computed fields, bands, graphs, even the DataWindow object itself) has a set of properties appropriate to the part. The properties display in the Properties window.

You can use the Properties window to modify the parts of the DataWindow object.

StepsTo use the Properties window to modify the parts of the DataWindow object:

  1. Position the mouse over the part you want to modify.

  2. Display the part's pop-up menu and select Properties.

    If it is not already displayed, the Properties window displays. The window displays the properties of the currently selected control(s), the band, or the DataWindow object itself. The contents of the Properties window change as different controls are selected (made current).
