Changes

Now that we have added the controls to our Form we need to change some of the characteristics of these controls. This is done by changing the ''Properties'' of the controls. Properties are a group of settings that the appearance and behavior of controls to be changed. For example, there is a properties for changing the text displayed on a label, the color of a button, the font of the text on a button and so on. Properties of a control of changed using the Visual Studio ''Properties'' panel which is, by default, displayed in the bottom right hand corner of the main dialog:

The properties displayed at any one time are related to the currently selected control in the Form. If you click on the Label and then the Button in your Form you will see the properties panel change to reflect the current selection.
