Editing Object Information

The Object Info palette provides information about the selected object(s) in a VectorWorks drawing. The information displayed depends on the type of objects selected. In addition, the palette can be used to change the parameters.

The Object Info palette organizes data into three tabbed panes:

 

Tab	Description
Shape	Displays information about a selected object’s geometry, class, and layer (see Shape Tab)
Data	Lists any database records attached to a selected object (see Data Tab)
Render	When RenderWorks is installed, this tab is added for the assigning and mapping of textures to 3D objects (see Applying Textures with Basic Mapping). When sketch rendering with the Design Series, the Sketch parameter is available on the Render tab, even if RenderWorks is not installed.

Object Info palette drop-down list items can be selected by using the mouse or by typing the first letter(s) of the desired item to highlight the closest match in the list (excluding class and layer lists).
