When creating your custom properties, you’ll probably want to organize them logically.

  • Organize properties into multiple sections to make them easier to manage and easy to find.
  • Order properties within sections in a logical manner. For example, organize them alphabetically.
  • Order sections and properties by dragging and dropping them within the Custom Properties view.
