Properties Tab
When a user selects an object inside the diagram (or right-clicks on an abject and selects Show Properties View from the menu) this tab is displayed. It contains a list of properties that are related to the selected object. Some of the properties are read-only, while others are editable.
Editable properties fall into several categories. Some, like the Description field, are directly editable by typing into the value column. Others allow you to select a value from a drop-down list or enter a list of values into a specific interface. Any changes to the property values will be recognized and applied to SharePoint at the time of the Update to SharePoint.
Progress Tab
The Progress tab is generally left in the background. Certain tasks, such as loading data from or to SharePoint will activate this area and allow you to follow the status of the process.
Compare View Tab
This tab will contain the results of comparing a diagram within Essentials Architect Suite against the SharePoint environment (see the Compare With Menu section for more information). This is also where the user can synchronize the two environments. So any changes in the design are propagated to SharePoint or vice-versa. Proceed to the Synchronizing a Metalogix Architect Suite Model with SharePoint section to learn more.
