Editing the Attributes and Properties of Objects

Editing

of Multiple Objects Simultaneously

You can select multiple objects in order to edit properties and attributes that apply to all of those objects. If you select multiple objects of different object types, the selection of tabs displayed on the Edit Properties dialog box may be limited. In addition, the properties and attributes that you can edit may be limited. This is because you cannot apply all properties and attributes to all object types.

For example:

If you select a wire and a device, a Wire Color attribute is listed but you cannot change it because it cannot be applied to all of the selected objects.

Even if a property is not editable because it does not apply to all selected objects, you can still change whether it is visible or not.

If any of the selected objects are frozen, you can edit only graphical properties.

You cannot edit equipotential nets as part of a multiple selection.
