Defining Object Properties

With the exception of the Join object, BlueSky Integration Studio's objects are property-based. You can get to the properties window multiple ways including:

- Dbl-clicking the object in the designer window.

- Click on an object in the designer window to select it, then click either the properties toolbar icon, or select the View->Properties option from the main menu.

- Right-clicking on the object with give you a popup menu where you can select the Properties option.

The properties window is floating toolbar-style window that you can move, resize and close at will. There are several types of properties outlined below:

- Data entry: Require you to type in the information.

- Drop down list: This type of property has only a certain number of valid choices to choose from.

- Extended: Some properties contain an ellipse button (...). This implies there is a supporting window or wizard that will assist you in defining the properties values. For instance, the ColumnLayout property.

See also: The Data Objects, which defines each object and its associated properties.
