using the Quick Properties Panel
The Quick Properties panel provides access to several of the most commonly
changed parameters of the selected objects. You can quickly change the selected
object's layer, color, and linetype, as well as several parameters specific to the type
of object selected. For example, the Radius parameter is available when a circle is
selected and the Closed option is available when a polyline is selected. When multi-
ple objects are selected, only the parameters common to all are displayed. You will
use the Quick Properties panel to change the layer of the front and back stairs.
