Properties are descriptive characteristics about an item. All repository items have properties. You can open an item’s properties through the icon.
To view or set properties:
Navigate to the item for which to set properties.
Do one of the following, depending on the view you are using:
Click .
Click the Properties link.
Select View>Properties>Info.
The Properties page appears.
The Properties page often includes multiple tabs, each tab covering the settings that govern a particular functionality.
Common tabs include the Info tab and the Permissions tab. The Info tab displays general properties such as name, creator, and version number. The Permissions tab displays the access that different users have to the item. For information on the Permissions tab, see Editing permissions in the Permissions tab.
The remaining tabs that appear are determined by the WDK-based application you are running and by any customizations. For information on a particular functionality, refer to the topic in this guide that covers that functionality.
In the available tabs, set properties as desired.
If the Edit link appears next to a property, you set the property’s values by clicking Edit and entering values in the resulting page. You enter values by either typing them in a box or by selecting them from a list and clicking a right arrow. When you are done adding values, click OK.
If the See CIS Values link appears, you can click this to receive suggested property values. You then select the values you want to accept and click OK. Suggested values cannot include the tilde (~) or vertical pipe ( | ) characters.
Click OK.
