Note:

There are three variations of the Properties dialog:

The dialog for a Table or Stored Procedure element has slight differences on the General tab and a Table (Stored Procedure) Details tab instead of a Details tab; see Set Table Properties

The dialog for a Class element of a stereotype other than Table is as shown in General Settings.
The dialog for an element of any other type does not have a Details tab.

The following topics describe each of the tabs in this dialog in detail.
