6 Lay Out a UI Using GUIDE
6-18
Once you have defined a UI component in the layout area, selecting it automatically
shows it in the Property Inspector. If the Property Inspector is not open or is not
visible, double-clicking a component raises the inspector and focuses it on that
component.
The components listed in the following table have additional considerations; read
more about them in the sections described there.
