Customizing the Properties Window
You can change the appearance of the domain properties in your domain-specific language designer. In particular, you can specify whether a domain property appears in the Properties window and whether it is read-only. You can also specify the category to which it belongs.
Hiding Properties
You can prevent domain properties from appearing in the Properties window by setting the Is Browsable property to False. The Is Property Browsable property is available on domain roles.
Making Properties Read-Only
You can make domain properties read-only by setting the Is UI Read Only property to True. The Is Property UI Read Only property is available on domain roles that have a multiplicity of 0..1 or 1..1.
Specifying Categories for Properties
You can set the category for a property by setting its Category property to the value you want. This property is available on domain roles.
Exposing Style Properties
You can expose certain style properties on diagrams, shapes, and connectors. On shapes you can expose the FillColor, OutlineColor, TextColor, OutlineDashStyle, OutlineThickness and FillGradientMode properties. On connectors you can expose the Color,TextColor, DashStyle, and Thickness properties. On diagrams you can expose the FillColor and TextColor properties. However, modifying the TextColor property has no effect on diagrams.
