# `<properties>`

The `<properties>` element gives a list of properties for the subject of the current topic, for example whether a class is public or protected. Each property can include the type, value, and a description. The typical rendering is usually in a table-like format. To represent multiple values for a single type, create additional property elements and use only the `<propvalue>` element (and `<propdesc>` when needed) for each successive value.
