You can use comments to document your objects and libraries. For example, you might use comments to describe how a window is used, specify the differences between descendent objects, or identify a PowerBuilder library.
You can associate comments with an object or library when you first save it in a painter and add or modify comments in the System Tree or Library painter. If you want to modify comments for a set of objects, you can do so quickly in the List view.
To modify comments for multiple objects:
In the List view, select the objects you want.
Select Entry>Properties from the menu bar or select Properties from the pop-up menu.
PowerBuilder displays the Properties dialog box. The information that displays is for one of the objects you selected. You can change existing comments, or, if there are no comments, you can enter new descriptive text.
Click OK when you have finished editing comments for this object.
If you do not want to change the comments for an object, click OK. The next object displays.
Enter comments and click OK for each object until you have finished.
If you want to stop working on comments before you finish with the objects you selected, click Cancel. The comments you have entered until the most recent OK are retained and display in the List view.
To modify comments for a library:
Select the library you want.
Click the Properties button or select Library from the pop-up menu.
Add or modify the comments.
