As I'd written, it returns all properties which are returned in "the properties", as in:
get the properties of button 1
This includes read-only properties like ID.
If you find any properties not returned by that function submit a Bugzilla report and when they fix it in the engine it'll automatically work in 4W Props too.
Actually, quite a few properties aren't reported by the properties property. I quote:
"Not every property is included in the properties property. The following types of properties are excluded:
* Read-only properties
* The script property and custom properties
* Synonyms: Only one synonym for each property is included.
* Duplicates: Properties that are functionally duplicated by other properties are not included. For example, the rectangle property is included, but not the height, width, top, bottom, left, right, or location properties, because you can derive all of them from the object's rectangle.
* Properties other than object properties: Global properties, local properties, properties of a character or chunk in a field, and adjectives such as short that are implemented internally as properties are all excluded.
* Others: Some other properties are excluded."
I can't remember offhand what the "some other properties" were at the time that was written. If I recall correctly, the properties property was implemented specifically to make the Profile Manager possible, and Kevin wanted the flexibility to exclude properties if need be for that reason.
