Parameters
- Object
- Type: SystemObject
The object to inspect (an entity, a table object, the drawing thumbnail, or any other object whose public properties should be shown).
Return Value
Type:
BooleanTrue if the user confirmed with Ok and at least one writable property was modified; false if the dialog was cancelled, closed, or no property changed.
Remarks
The dialog lists the object properties in a PropertyGrid. Inherited entity fields (color, layer, linetype, transparency, vectors, and so on) can be edited in place; the drawing is refreshed as values change so the result can be previewed immediately.
Ok keeps the edits and marks the document as modified when something actually changed. Cancel, Escape, or closing the form restores the original values and the previous modified state of the document.
The displayed data can be exported to a CSV file.
