Why do properties on the shaping tab show up as tiles?

[Why do properties on the shaping tab show up as tiles?] More importantly, how can I stop it? I can't see the property names and only three tiles fit on the pane. I just want this tab to look like all the others - a list of horizontal sliders. Any ideas?

I suggest adding a picture of what you are seeing, so people can know.

Added screenshot(s). First is what I'm seeing, second is what I want.

That's how it's designed to behave.

There's no options to change it from tiles to list, that i can find in any menu.

The reason it's only able to show 3 tiles, is that the tab is too narrow to show more.

You can expand it by click-hold-drag on the Dock area divider.

You would need to manually edit the figures main DSF file to change it from the "cards" to sliders, and I wouldn't recommend trying it.

• Extended DzShapingPane scripting API; added isShowingPropertyCards(), setShowPropertyCards(), toggleShowPropertyCards(); added showingPropertyCardsChanged() signal

• Added a “Show Property Cards” (DzSHPNGShowPropertyCardsAction) action to the “Preferences” submenu of the Shaping pane option menu

  • When enabled, regions of an object that are configured to display “cards” for properties, display cards

  • When disabled, cards are not displayed for any region regardless of its configuration

Yea, DS 4.23.1.8 Public Build gives such a feature to disable "show cards" ~
