Use the Tag Properties window to display all available data for a grid in a single property grid.
All of the available grid properties are displayed in the window and they are grouped by the Category property of the attribute, which is part of the core database schema or the Category property of the User Defined Attributes (UDA), as defined in the Lexicon module when the UDA is set up.
Although it appears that all data is editable, all of the normal access controls are enforced and data can only be modified the data that is accessible. Any data displayed that is read-only cannot be modified.
Items can be organized and displayed using the functionality available.

Tracking |
Turns automatic tracking on or off. In the Engineer module, your selection persists within and across sessions. In the Configuration module, your selection persists only within a session. If tracking is on, the Properties grid automatically updates to display the properties of the currently selected tag. If tracking is off, the Properties grid does not update when you select different tags. To update the Properties grid, you must right-click the required row and select Tag Properties.
