such as Boolean, Double, Color, Font and so on.
The method widget.setPropertyValue(prop_id, value) only accepts certain
value types corresponding to the property type. Here is the list of the acceptable value types for
each type of property. Property Value Type is the type of the object returned from
widget.getPropertyValue(prop_id).
| Property Type | Example Properties |
| Boolean Property | Enabled, Visible |
| Integer Property | Height, Width, X, Y |
| Double Property | Meter.Level HIHI, Meter.Maximum |
| Combo Property | Border Style |
| String Property | Name, PV Name, Text |
| Color Property | Background Color, Foreground Color |
| Font Property | Font |
| File Path Property | Image.Image File, Linking Container.OPI File |
| PointList Property | Polyline.Points, Polygon.Points |
| Macros Property | Macros |
| ColorMap Property | IntensityGraph.Color Map |
