Свойство е някакво количество от информация като число или текстов низ, което е прикрепено към документ на FreeCAD или обект в документ. Публичните свойства могат да бъдат разглеждани и променяни в Преглед на свойствата.
Свойствата играят много важна роля във FreeCAD. Тъй като обектите във FreeCAD са "параметрични", това означава, че поведението им се определя от техните свойства и как тези свойства се използват като вход за техните методи на класа.

Персонализираните скриптови обекти (scripted objects) могат да използват всеки от типовете свойства, определени в базовата система:

Internally, the property name is prefixed with App::Property:
App::PropertyBool
App::PropertyFloat
App::PropertyFloatList
...
Remember that these are property types. A single object may have many properties of the same type, but with different names.
For example:
obj.addProperty("App::PropertyFloat", "Length")
obj.addProperty("App::PropertyFloat", "Width")
obj.addProperty("App::PropertyFloat", "Height")
This indicates an object with three properties of type "Float", named "Length", "Width", and "Height", respectively.

A scripted object is created first, and then properties are assigned.
obj = App.ActiveDocument.addObject("Part::Feature", "CustomObject")
obj.addProperty("App::PropertyFloat", "Velocity", "Parameter", "Body speed")
obj.addProperty("App::PropertyBool", "VelocityEnabled", "Parameter", "Enable body speed")
In general, Data properties are assigned by using the object's addProperty() method. On the other hand, View properties are normally provided automatically by the parent object from which the scripted object is derived.
For example:
App::FeaturePython provides only 4 View properties: "Display Mode", "On Top When Selected", "Show In Tree", and "Visibility".Part::Feature provides 17 View properties: the previous four, plus "Angular Deflection", "Bounding Box", "Deviation", "Draw Style", "Lighting", "Line Color", "Line Width", "Point Color", "Point Size", "Selectable", "Selection Style", "Shape Color", and "Transparency".Nevertheless, View properties can also be assigned using the view provider object's addProperty() method.
obj.ViewObject.addProperty("App::PropertyBool", "SuperVisibility", "Base", "Make the object glow")
In the source code, properties are located in various src/App/Property* files.
They are imported and initialized in src/App/Application.cpp.
