Cannot Edit Figures using Extended Properties in 2012 Locked
Extended Properties in the Edit Figure Dialog Box is not allowed
This is a result of the GUI and is intentional due to unexpected issues. When we edit a figure the object is looked at as a Chain. However if the chain does not exist it cannot be edited. However when we create a Figure there would be no Chain definition to edit. So Autodesk was converting the objects to a Chain in the background (So we did not know or see this). They found that due to some constraint issues it was performing this incorrectly on some objects. So Autodesk had to lock this down in order for this to not cause issues with the figure in those cases. This (not certain what is wrong here) is known by Autodesk and is being worked on and hopefully we will have a correction soon. This effects all Figures this cannot be used in this release according to Autodesk. Although I have found a few places through various trial and error tests where I was able to get it to come up. This was not consistent and there is no way to make this work regularly and should not be used.
