Description
The notion of a Property is very domain-dependent in computer documentation. Some object-oriented systems speak of properties; the components from which GUIs are constructed have properties; and one can speak of properties in very general terms; “the properties of a relational database.”
You might use Property for any of these in your documentation.
Processing expectations
Formatted inline. The MoreInfo attribute can help generate a link or query to retrieve additional information.
