Set Properties Dialog

TPC displays this dialog when you choose the Set Object Properties command. It provides access to common properties shared by most drawing objects.

If you select a property like a color or line type, TPC changes that property in each selected object in the drawing.

Set Properties - 5 Objects

The dialog title bar displays the number of objects selected. These are the objects that will be modified if you choose OK.

Varies

The property pull down lists, like color, display the word Varies if the selected objects do not all share the same value for that property. Just select the value you want from the list. When you choose OK, TPC will edit that property for each selected object.

Color

Select the color you would like for all the selected objects.

Paper Space

Toggle between paper space and survey space.

This is a three-way toggle. It can be checked (all objects are Paper Space), unchecked (all objects are Survey Space) or grayed (some of the objects are Paper Space and some are Survey Space).

Layer

Select the layer you would like all of the selected objects to be on.

TPC will not change the layer of any survey objects (derived from traverses or surfaces).

Line

Select the line type and line weight you would like to use for the selected objects.

Fill

Select a fill. Not objects can be filled. TPC knows which ones can and applies the fill only to them.

Font

Select the font, font size and font type from these pull down lists. These properties only apply to text and text related objects.

OK

Accept the properties and apply them to each of the selected objects.
