'Edit Properties' button in 2D model sheet

'Edit Properties' button in 2D model sheet

'Edit Properties' button in 2D model sheet

(OP)
So Siemens in their infinite wisdom removed the Edit Properties command (ST1) and you now have to add it as a button to the QAT.
Only problem is I can't add it in the 2D model sheet.
The ADD option is greyed out.
Can anyone confirm this?

I have a load of text boxes that I need to change the border thickness, and I'm having to do them individually.
This is NOT ACCEPTABLE.
Why can't I multi-select then right click to get the properties for all of them!

Where would we be without sat-nav?

RE: 'Edit Properties' button in 2D model sheet

BC,

when you add this function to the QAT while the working sheet is
active it will be available also when switching to 'draw in view'
Switching to the 2D-Model sheet then you have to add it once more.
(ST2/MP2).
In ST1 (MP5) it must be added to the QAT for each environment and it did
work while within the 2D-Model sheet.
BTW: when a function is already on the QAT you can't add it a second
time.

The 'Edit Properties' will be inactive until an editable item is
selected.

More than once complained about it but it fell on deaf ears (like so
many things; they live in an ivory tower and not in the real world).
Even when pointing out that it's not Windows standard -- nothing ...

OOOPS,
Looks like a code 24 error (error occured 24" FROM SCREEN)
I just found the button already on the QAT.

Doesn't change the right-click thing though.
