The Properties Section allows customizing the report’s element properties. Each report element type has a specific set of properties. There are two ways to access the property of elements:
Select an element; select the Property section on the right-side toolbar once the element is selected. In that case, the element is already chosen from the list of components
Select the Property section; in the Property section select a required element from the drop-down list at the top of the section. Element settings are displayed in alphabetical order or categories. Use the buttons next to the selected element to switch between display modes.

Each property record consists of a caption, a value editor, and an optional property marker. To change a property value, select the property and specify its value in the editor.
Certain properties contain nested properties which can be accessed when you click the header.
The property marker indicates whether the property value was changed:
If a property stores a default value, its property marker is gray.
If a property value was changed, the property marker becomes white.
If a report style overrides a property value, the marker is light blue. This applies to appearance properties (for instance, an element’s BackColor, Font, Borders).
Reset Property Values
Click the property marker to the right of the editor. Select Reset in the invoked popup menu to restore the default property values.
The Reset command resets the expression and the value you specified in the property’s editor.
