+ The <dfn>Region properties</dfn> window brings information about the selected
+ regions, and allows to fine tune its sequencing. It is accessed through the
+ <kbd class="menu">Region > Properties…</kbd> menu, or by
+ <kbd class="mouse">right</kbd> clicking the region,
+ <kbd class="menu"><i>Name_of_the_Region</i> > Properties…</kbd>.
+</p>
+<p>
+ This window also allows to manually set the different values.
