How You Access Design Properties from the Actions List

In addition to using the buttons on the Design tab to edit fields and controls on the design space, you can open an actions list that is unique for each item. The actions list contains some of the same options accessed from the Design tab.

Using the actions list can be helpful when the designer ribbon is collapsed. You can access the actions list either by right-clicking an item on the design space or by selecting the item and clicking the action arrow. The action arrow appears on the upper right side of each selected item on the design space. The list of action options displays. To select an action, click it in the list.
