NOTE If you create a manual property, it is helpful to enter neutral
characters, such as --, as the default value. When you create a
schedule table, the characters fill the cells for which you have not
entered values. You can edit the characters in each cell later. If you
leave the default value blank in the property set definition, the
corresponding cells are blank. You cannot select and edit blank cells.
13 Clear Visible if you do not want this property definition to appear
on the Extended Data tab of the Properties palette.
For more information, see Hiding Properties on page 3824.
14 Enter a number for Order if you want this property definition to
appear on the Extended Data tab in a particular order.
For more information, see Sequencing Property Definitions on
page 3824.
15 Click OK.
NOTE When you attach property set data to an xref drawing or block using RefEdit
and the property set includes Auto IncrementInteger or Auto
IncrementCharacter, then you must set the default value to the first number to
be used in the xref or block to avoid creating duplicate numbers.
Adding a Field to a Property Set Definition
Use this procedure to add a field to a property set definition. Fields contain
updatable values or hyperlinks, and are selected from a list.
You can create a manual property as a placeholder for a field. In that case,
you enter the field in the property once it is attached to an object or style. If
you enter a field as a default value for a manual property in the definition, all
objects or styles that have the property attached already contain the field.

The Style Manager is displayed with the current drawing expanded
in the tree view.
2 Expand Documentation Objects, and expand Property Set
Definitions.
3 Select the property set definition to which you want to add a field.
