  • toolpane
  • You can open the Properties toolpane from the Library or any document editor. Property changes made from the Library or Outline Editor are automatically saved to the document. Changing a property from another editor, such as the Web Page editor, initiates a prompt to save your changes when you close the editor. You cannot change properties for a document open in another editor. For example, if you open a web page or topic, you cannot change properties for the open documents from the Library. A warning message appears at the bottom of the Properties toolpane indicating that the document is open and that you must close it to modify the document properties.
  • Undo Document Properties
  • Most document editors (for example, Outline, Glossary, and Role editors) have an Undo command that allow you to undo a property change. You cannot undo property changes from the Web Page or Package editors or from the Library. There is no limit to number of actions you can undo/redo in the Outline Editor.
  • If you are changing properties from an editor that does not allow undo, and you are still in the property cell, you can press CTRL+Z or right-click in the cell and choose Undo from the context menu to undo a property change. Once you click outside a cell, you cannot undo your changes.
