Hi, I want to set shared properties of components in a multiple selection (for example the background color of several JPanels). Here is what the JBuilder tutorial says to this: <TUTORIAL> Setting shared properties When more than one component is selected, the Inspector display only the properties that: - The components have in common. - Can be edited. When you change any of the shared properties in the Inspector, the property value changes to the new value in all the selected components. Note: When the original value for the shared property differs among the selected components, the property value displayed in the Inspector is either the default or the value of the first component in the selection list. To set properties for multiple components, 1. Select the multiple components that will have shared properties. 2. Select and edit the desired property in the Inspector. </TUTORIAL> I have followed these instructions step by step but it doesn't work. I'm only able to set the properties of the first component in the selection - the other components stay unaffected. I notice the following: After making a multiple selection in the component tree, the inspector shows the properties of the first component and NOT the shared properties though the component tree indicates that I have selected several components. I am new to JBuilder's UI Designer and presume that I make a rather stupid error. Please tell me, what I'm doing wrong. Thank you in advance, Thomas Broer, Kiel, Germany
