Setting Bracket Properties

---

You can change the properties of brackets by the context menus or Bracket Properties dialog box.

To use the Bracket Properties dialog box:

1. Select the right bracket with a selection tool.

2. From the Structure menu, choose Bracket Properties.

The Bracket Properties dialog box appears.

The Flip Type option appears only for brackets with exactly two crossing bonds, and is disabled in other cases.

You can customize the text that appears to the bottom right of the bracket for the following bracket types.

• Component (c#)-the Component Order must be a non-negative integer, and is displayed as the letter "c" followed by that integer (or "c" alone if an order of zero is specified).
• Multiple Group (#)-the Repeat Count must be a positive integer.
• SRU (n)-the SRU label can be any text.

You can also edit the text for these Bracket Usage types directly in the document using the Text tool. You cannot edit the text displayed for the other Bracket Usage types.
