Summary: A visibile indication that a value has been overridden within the properties palette; for example a different color text or background when something has been changed.
Description: The Properties palette should show "overrides" with different color text or background. For example, when a dimension is selected, and properties that have been overridden (i.e. are not "ByStyle"), it should be easily identifiable in the palette. Similarly for other object properties that can be set independantly of another global property (color, linetype, plot style, width factor, etc.).
How Used: This would make it easier to identify (and correct) potential problems caused by intentional or accidental overrides.
Feature Affinity: Object Properties Manager
