Overview of the main dialog elements:
From this drop-down list select the object (for example part, symbol, graphical element, etc.) to be used for a property configuration. The object which is available here depends on where the configuration is called up. This way a property configuration in the parts management can only be assigned to the "Part" object.
The object assigned here is displayed in the previous configuration dialog for the respective property configuration in the Assignment column.
Enter the name of the property configuration here as it is to be displayed in the configuration dialog.
This field shows the filter you have defined via [...] in the Filter dialog.
This list contains the properties assigned to the current property configuration. The properties are dependent on the object selected in the Assignment field.
