Oops, one more try at the final version.
Thanks to Mark Wieder for finding a bug that it did not always force
the proper entry in the dictionary if the doc window was already
open. I have corrected that and also made it display only the
property item in the search window. It seems to work well as a plug-
in item. Please let me know if anyone else has a problem with it's
operation. It is available from my revOnline user space (see3d).

All,
My final version of the "Properties of Objects" table is complete
and available from my revOnline user space (see3d). It is now a
significantly useful resource. Click on any object type in the
column and the table will resort to show those properties first.
Click on any property name and it will find and display that
property dictionary entry in the documentation stack. I have
checked every entry and all are documented.
Thank you Mark for pointing me in the right direction to make the
final useful addition. I think you will like it.

Thanks. This is a great little tool to have around.
Unfortunately, you'll find that a lot of the property names just
aren't in the documentation as individual entries (yes, the
documentation *does* need work). Try finding "caption", for example.
Others are not easily pinpointed - try finding "name" and you'll come
up with many hits.
But if you want to give this a try, how about:
open stack "revdocs"
put targetString into field "Find" of stack "revdocs"
send "mouseUp" to button "Go" of stack "revdocs"
...and here's a hint: if you enable "Revolution UI elements in lists"
in the "View" menu you'll see all the IDE stacks in the Application
Browser. Then you can make some educated guesses about what's
controlling what and poke around to do all sorts of interesting
things.
