Usage:         
vtk_prop_set [OPTIONS] objectId propName propValue

Description:   
This procedure sets the value of a property attached to an object. The -auto/-text/-integer options are used to specify the property data type. 
The default behavior (-auto) is to automatically determine the data type by looking at the first character of the specified property value. 
The -asynch option is used to prevent the client from waiting for confirmation from the server, which results in slightly faster execution. 
The default behavior is to wait (-synch). 
The -elements option is used to set the property on all elements of a set, if the specified object ID is that of a set. 
The default behavior is to apply the property to the set itself (-noelements). 
The -field option is used internally by preemption only and directs the specified value into a field on the object instead of a property. 
        
Example:
vtk_prop_set 2 MY_INTEGER_PROPERTY 12
vtk_prop_set -text 2 MY_TEXT_PROPERTY "Hello there"
vtk_prop_set -asynch -text 2 MY_TEXT_PROPERTY "Hello there"
vtk_prop_set -elements -text 2 MY_TEXT_PROPERTY "Hello there"


Returns:       
Nothing
