Property sheets are special dialogs that show the defaults/settings of the drawing/job or a given object in it (such as a cabinet).
A property sheet is divided into Categories (or groups) under which are related Pages. The property options are accessed by clicking on the corresponding Page heading.
Context Help is available on all Property Sheets.
First select the page (e.g. Job Setup > Job Defaults page of the Drawing Properties, shown above) and click on the Context Help button and then on the relevant page.
The Drawing and Catalog properties of a library have similar Categories/Pages and their property sheets have control buttons - see Extra Notes.
The Cabinet property sheets and property for Drawing objects can only be closed by using the close button and any changes will immediately be applied.
With CabMasterPro you can view Library Catalog from the View tab and clicking on LCM command button to open the property sheet for the current library selected on the Home tab.
Changes made here will be permanently saved to the library.
To edit the properties of only the current drawing (without affecting the library), follow the above steps except select Drawing Properties from the File menu. This will open the properties of the current drawing instead.
To automatically open drawing properties when you create a new drawing, just enable the Option [F10] under heading On New Drawings. This will allow you to set properties/defaults before starting a new job.
Each cabinet can have its own set of properties. These contain options for customising only that object instead of the whole drawing. To use these, open the property sheet for the object by right-clicking it and selecting Format Cabinet/Item", and then select the category and page.
An that object means any item that can be placed on a page, such as Text Box, Dimension lines, Wall etc. as well as cabinets.

The category tree is not provided if a property sheet, such as the Lights Tool, has only one category/page.
