Using the Property Painter
The Property Painter dialog provides a shortcut to applying properties to buttons by applying a pre-
defined set of General, Programming and States properties to a selected button, page, or popup page
(FIG. 70).
The Property Painter dialog can be accessed via the View menu. It is also invoked when a button, popup
page or page is selected with the Grab Properties tool. The Property Painter dialog can either be used in
conjunction with the Grab Properties and Paint Properties tools, or as a stand-alone dialog.
The items in this dialog include:
