Defining CustomProperty Group:

Name Defines the name used by the CustomProperty Group.
Initial State Determines the default state of CustomProperty group.
Expanded The custom properties assigned to the expanded groups are visible when the CustomProperty pane is opened.
Collapsed The custom properties assigned to the collapsed groups are not visible when the CustomProperty pane is opened. The group of properties needs to be expanded in order to make them visible.
Last State Uses the last used initial state.

Advanced options:

Group visible based on value of property Select CustomProperty used to control visibility of the selected CustomProperty Group.
Property value to set group visible Define a value that is looked for from the CustomProperty selected in the Group visible based on value of property box to control visibility of the selected group.
Example: A CustomProperty selected from the Group visible based on value of property box is desc1 and the value defined in the Property value to set group visible is BASE.

The selected CustomProperty Group is visible in the CustomProperties pane if the desc1 property's value is BASE, otherwise the selected CustomProperty group is not shown in the CustomProperties pane.
Info TIP: When the property used to handle the visibility of the selected group is an editbox type of property, type an asterisk (*) in the Property value to set group visible box to allow any value in the control property to set the selected property group visible.
