Properties panel
The Properties panel is where you can view and modify the properties of a XAML object that is selected on the artboard or in the Objects and Timeline panel. If you modify an object directly on the artboard, the property changes will be reflected in the Properties panel.

Value editors
The Properties panel includes a number editor for entering values such as degrees, pixels, percentages, and so on. For example, the RGBA color space text boxes in the preceding image are number editors. You can click an existing numerical value and type the exact value you want, or you can use the unique slider to change values by moving your pointer over the text box of the property, and then dragging when the numerical adjust pointer .png "JJ171037.99713193-615f-4ee2-a668-522b5572f389(pt-br,VS.110).png")
appears. You can also click in the text box of the property and use the Up Arrow and Down Arrow keys to adjust the value.

Advanced properties
Most categories of properties in the Properties panel have an expandable advanced section, which you can open by clicking Show advanced properties .png "Mostrar propriedades avançadas")
at the bottom of the category. The advanced properties are less commonly used, including subproperty and collection editors.
Subproperty and collection editors
Some properties represent a collection of values, or represent an object with properties of its own. For example, if you add rows or columns to a Grid layout panel by clicking Edit items in this collection next to the ColumnDefinitions or RowDefinitions property, a collection editor appears in which you can add rows and columns. If you add a document to a FlowDocumentScrollViewer object by clicking New next to the Document property, a subproperty editor expands below the Document property. In the subproperty editor, you can view and modify the properties for the new document.
Setting special values
You can view additional property options by clicking Advanced options .png "JJ171037.12e06962-5d8a-480d-a837-e06b84c545bb(pt-br,VS.110).png")
next to the property that you want to modify, including custom expressions, resources, or data bindings, or to reset the property to its default value. After you set a property in the Advanced Options list, the name of the property is given a colored border so that you know what type of value is set. For example, if you set the value of a property to a System Resource, the property name will be given a green border.
