There are two different things here. The default is to display multiple properties as a list. That's what's controlled by Tab Style Property Editors on the Property Editors/Views tab of the Interaction preferences.
In addition, some single properties have internal tabs, like Interaction preferences or Phong. On those, you can right-click and Display as List. It's not the default, and it's not controlled by the preference. That's what might have been removed. gray -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Matt Lind Sent: Friday, August 24, 2012 01:26 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: Small Annoying Things If "Display as List" was supposed to be removed, then why is it the default behavior out of the box?

There is an almost impossible to find "Tab-Style Property Editors" user preference option that's been a little more popular in some crowds On Fri, Aug 24, 2012 at 9:14 AM, Eugen Sares <[email protected]> wrote: > I used it to compare/copy params from one shader to another, > side-by-side, and for screenshots showing everything at one glance.
