| Pressing the 'Create Set' button brings up the Capture Set Parameters, dialog, where you assign which properties will be captured on the objects that are assigned to the set. Items highlighted in a list will be captured, non-highlighted ignored: you can un-highlight a previously captured property and RPM will ignore that property from then on. When you press the 'Ok' button, the properties are captured and the dialog closes. The Apply button allows you to set and capture the properties but leave the dialog open. | Pressing the 'Create Set' button brings up the Capture Set Parameters, dialog, where you assign which properties will be captured on the objects that are assigned to the set.
