Every object contains Properties, which are used to save information about its features. For example, a Rectangle-type object contains a Name property, which stores its name, and the Width and Height properties, which store its width and height, respectively, among other properties.
This chapter lists all common properties of Elipse Water objects. Each topic contains the name of the property, its description and, when applicable, an example of its usage. Properties are identified by an icon indicating the data type supported by their content. The available data types are described on the next table.

Some properties can propagate their values to the same property in their child objects. In this case, they are called propagating properties. Users can, however, force a child object's property to behave in a different way.
NOTE |
Elipse Water uses the Himetric system to define coordinates and widths. In this system, each logical unit is equivalent to a thousandth centimeter, that is, 1,000 units are equivalent to one centimeter. Thus, this is the standard adopted when describing Elipse Water properties, when applicable. |
