The Properties palette API includes interfaces and implementation classes that provide access to the Properties palette window. These APIs can be used in conjunction with the Property Inspector APIs to achieve comprehensive control over the Properties palette environment.
A complete, categorized list of Property Inspector and Properties palette API interfaces and classes can be found in the Properties Palette Interfaces and Classes section at the end of this chapter.
The following table lists the header files that contain Properties palette declarations, with a summary of their contents.
