Properties Area

Properties Display

Here are examples of the displayed information, depending on the selected element:

Properties (attributes, types, parameters, in and out links, reference and instance information...)

Important: In the properties area:

The exposed parameter value is expressed with the base unit of the object, not the display unit used in the editor. For example, if the editor displays length with kilometer (display unit) with a base unit in meter, the properties panel displays the value with its base unit, in meter.
The Hidden section and the predicates are not displayed by default. Press Ctrl+Alt+P to display them. For more information, see Keyboard Shortcuts.

Hyperlinks to the elements related to your selection
Additional information from the context, if a context is defined for your navigation
Downloadable documents (for example, .doc or .xls documents), in the File section
