Selection, Properties, Notes, Tags, and Materials in CADStudio
How object properties work in CADStudio, including notes, tag pills, material pills, point screen scaling, and multi-selection reports.
Select one object to edit its specific properties.
Point objects include local and global coordinates, layer, style, point scaling, Z values, notes, tags, and materials.
Notes are free text. Tags and materials are stored as removable pills so one object can carry several classifications.
Select several objects to edit shared fields together. If the selected objects have different values, CADStudio shows that difference instead of hiding it.
The lower part of the multi-selection Properties panel contains a report: object count, type count, total line length, closed area, total volume, and totals grouped by tag and by material.
