Work with properties in the editor

Use the Properties panel in the Tangelo editor to change settings for sections, titles, paragraphs, images, tables, and other content elements.

Tangelo uses default settings based on the document type and configuration. When needed, users can override specific settings through the Properties panel.

The available properties depend on the selected element, document type, and customer configuration.

Summary

After completing these steps, you can select an element in the editor and adjust its properties to override the default settings where allowed.

Steps

1. Open the document in the editor.
2. Select the element you want to change.
   • Section
   • Section title
   • Paragraph
   • Image
   • Table
   • Other configured content element
3. Open the Properties panel.
4. Use the dropdown menu to switch between available property groups if needed.
5. Locate the property you want to change.
6. Click Add next to the property option you want to apply.
   • The selected option overrides the default setting.
7. Adjust the property value if required.
8. Remove an overridden property if you want to return to the default setting.
   • Click the bin icon next to the property.
9. Generate a preview or PDF to check the result.

Expected Result

The selected element uses the configured property setting instead of the default setting.

Remarks

• Properties vary by document type, customer configuration, and selected element.
• Only available and configured options are shown in the Properties panel.
• Adding a property overrides the default setting.
• Removing a property returns the element to the default setting.
