The File Properties section enables you to save summary information and revision notes together with your PADS4 presentation. This makes it easier to share background details or keep track of changes.

​
How to View File Properties

  2. Click Properties on the File menu to open the file properties window.

​
Summary Properties

In this section, you can enter specific details about your presentation, such as:

  • Purpose of the presentation.
  • Author or contact information.
  • Version details.

These details help other users understand the purpose and status of the presentation when they open it.

​
Notes Properties

Here, you can add revision notes to track changes or comments about the presentation.

​
To Add a New Revision Note:

  1. Click Add.
  2. Enter a Description for your revision note.
  3. The system automatically adds the current date and time to the note.
  4. Click Save to confirm the addition, or Cancel to discard it.

​
Remarks

  • Important: Once a revision note is added, it cannot be removed. All notes are stored permanently as part of the presentation’s history.
  • This allows for transparent version control and auditing, especially useful in collaborative environments.
