Multi-shape editing
In this DtpEditor demo you can select multiple shapes and then edit all the common properties. For instance: select a line shape as well as a rectangle shape and you can edit both shape's polygon fill colors at the same time with one single click!
Updates when entering data
Any properties that are changed usually directly update in the document. However, in order to see the results of changes in an edit box, you must first press the [TAB] key to exit out of this edit box. At the moment the edti box is left (either with TAB or with a click on another contro), the new value is taken into account.
