The Edit properties action, available both on the toolbar and on the
contextual menu, is used to edit the properties of the selected node. Depending on the
selected node, the action will perform the following tasks:
- If a topicref or chapter element is selected, the action will show a dialog
similar with the Insert Topic
Reference dialog allowing the editing of some important
attributes.
- If a topichead element is selected, the action will show a dialog similar with the
Insert Topic Heading
dialog allowing the editing of some important attributes.
- If a topicgroup element is selected, the action will show a dialog similar with the
Insert Topic Group
dialog allowing the editing of some important attributes.
- If the map's root element is selected then the user will be able to easily edit the map's
title using the Edit Map title dialog. By using this dialog you can
also specify whether the title will be specified as the title attribute to the map or
as a title element (for DITA-OT 1.1 and 1.2) or specified in both locations.
