Basic properties reflect the default or the last stored value. When multiple objects are selected in the drawing, not all properties appear in the Properties palette. Those that do appear are designated with asterisk(s) as follows:
- * Appears when multiple conduit segments are selected
- ** Appears when multiple fittings are selected
- *** Appears when either multiple conduit segments or multiple conduit segments with fittings are selected
