In the SmartProperties PropertyManager, you can display groups that can be placed at predefined positions.

Here, select the group you want to define from the drop-down menu.

 


  • "Properties" Group

 

The "General Properties" group is in first place.

When the " Put the property name and value on the same line " checkbox is selected, the following result is obtained:

 


When the " Place the property name and value on the same line " checkbox is unchecked, the result is as follows:

 


  • "Favorites" Group

 


The " Favorites" feature and the location of this group appear in the PropertyManager if the "Show" checkbox is selected.

If you check the "Collapse" box, the group will be collapsed by default when the PropertyManager is displayed.


  • "Customization" Group


 


This type of group is essential and must be included in the PropertyManager, since it is the button that provides access to SmartProperties' " Settings." Therefore, only its position can be specified.

If you check the "Collapse" box, the group will be collapsed by default when the PropertyManager is displayed.


  • "Options" Group

 

  


This group allows you to manage the "IsFastener" property and delete properties.

In the PropertyManager, if you check the "Exclude from cut" option, an "IsFastener" property will be created with a value of "1." If this property already exists, its value will be set to "1." If you uncheck this option, the property value is set to “0,” and the property is not deleted.


 

 

If you click the "Delete" button, all properties will be deleted, namely:

  - the complete document (including configurations)

  - the document alone

  - for all configurations

  - or the current configuration

This group can be placed at the top of the interface so that, for example, all properties can be removed to initialize the list and thus ensure that only the useful properties are generated.


  • "Configuration" Group

 


This group is always enabled. You can adjust its position in the PropertyManager.


 


By default, the " Document-related " option is checked.

Properties managed by SmartProperties can be created for the active configuration or for specific configurations within the document.

Just check the correct option in the PropertyManager.

If you check the "Collapse" box, the group will be collapsed by default when the PropertyManager is displayed.

Checking the " Save the last selected option " box is useful if you want the properties to be created in the active configuration every time you launch the SmartProperties utility. You only need to check this box once.
