Editing Spatial Objects

You can edit the parameters of Spatial Objects by displaying each object’s ‘Edit <object name>’ dialog box. There are several ways to do this:

Right-click inside an object and select Edit <object name>. If there is more than one object in the vicinity of the cursor when you click, the resulting menu will offer you a list of objects to select from. If there are more than ten objects available, select More to display the entire list.
In the Object Directory, double-click on an object.
In the Object Directory, right-click on an object and select Edit Properties.
If the object is listed as one of your search results, double-click on it or select it and then press the Edit Properties button.

Change any parameters and click OK to confirm your changes. See Setting the parameters of Spatial Objects and also Spatial Objects In Detail.
