Used to modify the layout and framing of groups, the Group Property Editor can be displayed by choosing Groups from the Editors menu of the App Builder primary window or by choosing Group from the Revolving Property Editor Object Type option menu. A group, unlike most of the objects edited in the Revolving Property Editor, is a created object and is not available from an object palette. See "Grouping Objects", for instructions.
Only properties unique to a group object are described here. See "Property Editor: Universal Properties" for descriptions of Object Type, Objects, Initial State, and Color. See "Property Editor: Common Properties" for descriptions of Border Frame and Position.
Note that choosing Groups from the Editors menu in the App Builder primary window is the same as clicking the Tear-off button in the Revolving Property Editor when the Object Type is Group.
