The Properties View's title bar offers you several icons to perform a range of operations:
- Click
to pin this property
view to the current selection - Click
to show all properties of the preselected element in the view
(including the properties in the “Basic” category) - Click
to
show advanced properties - Click
to
restore the default value of a selected property
- Click the white triangle to open the view menu. The view menu allows you
- to open a new Properties View

- to pin a property to a selection
- to show categories and advanced properties to define the width of the two columns “Property” and “Value” after clicking “Configure Columns…”
- Click the both remaining icons above to minimize and maximize the view
There is also a context menu in the title bar that is identical to all view title bar context menus in Eclipse.
