The Properties window display is a two-column table that provides the common properties of the current selection in the active Design window. The active items always determine the content of the Properties window. You can only have one Properties window open. If only one component is selected, or all components are of the same type, all the properties of that type of component appear. If your select set contains components of different types, then only the common properties appear. If the selected items have different values for their common properties, the value box is blank.

You can modify the values for properties in the Properties window. You can display and edit relationships that involve components, component types, or assemblies.

At the top of the Properties window is the Selected Items list, which itemizes all of the selected objects individually and as a select set. You can display item properties by locating the appropriate item in the Selected Items list, as well as by selecting an item in the Design window. An item and the properties that belong to it are associated when the item is created in Catalog Manager. If more than one item is selected in the Design window, then the Selected Items list contains the choice Select Set as well as individual items in the set.

You can use the Copy Bulk Properties and Paste Bulk Properties buttons to copy properties from one item to another. This action can be particularly useful when correcting inconsistencies, for instance, or when you must apply changes to more than one item. The software includes a default set of bulk properties, but you can change those properties specified as bulk in the Usage box on the Layout tab of the Advanced View Properties dialog.

If you copy or paste values in the grid area, use CTRL + C and CRTL + V.  Do not use the Edit > Copy, Edit > Paste, or Edit > Cut menu commands to modify property values in this grid.
