 The properties for the component can be edited in the Properties Panel by simply clicking the property value and/or typing in a value, this depends on the component and the property, many components have similar properties and some serve a completely different purpose because of the radical difference between some components.

 There are many different properties used in a range of different components, take the [[Component: ID f307403b 2134 4efa bfac bbd0adc0f253|Scale Arc]] component for example, this offers a vast range of properties to customize the appearance and function of the component.
 The [[Component: ID f307403b 2134 4efa bfac bbd0adc0f253|Scale Arc]] component properties allow you to change the colour of the negative and positive markings, labels and backgrounds as well as the resolution and shape of the canvas. There are many other properties available to change to customize the component to suit your desired purpose, you can change nearly every aspect of the Scale Arc just by changing the properties of the component.
