Accessing element properties from the Layout window

You can access element properties from the Layout window. Different element types will display different properties windows. For example, a data frame element will display the Data Frame Properties dialog box. A text element's properties dialog box displays an editor that allows you to change font characteristics.

Steps:

1. If necessary, click the Layout window button on the Production Cartography toolbar to display the Layout window.
2. Click an element in the Layout window.
3. Right-click the element and select Properties.

   A properties dialog box appears.
