A couple of weeks ago, I posted a [tip and trick](~/Blog/August-2010/Tips-and-Tricks--Default-Web-Part-and-Widget-prope) on how to adjust the default properties of web parts and widgets. I wrote the post so that I could easily locate the xml files whenever I needed them. Since that time I have often used the post, but didn’t want to go to the actual files to find the id’s and types of the properties. That’s why I decided to dedicate a post with the complete list of web part and widget properties.
