Using the Properties Panel
The Properties panel shows controls that match the selected markup type. It is the most detailed place to adjust appearance and metadata.

Change fields
Edit the general fields (subject, comments, label, status, colour, lock), the appearance section (fill, stroke, hatch, font), and measurement options shown for that markup.
Know why fields change
Text and callouts expose font controls, shapes expose fill and hatch controls, lines expose end caps, volume measurements expose the height field, and count markers expose the count shape. Missing controls usually mean the selected markup type does not support that property.
Use review status
The status dropdown (Accepted, Rejected, Cancelled, Completed, In Review) marks where each item sits in your review. Status is visible in the Markup List and can be used for grouping.
