Methods
  NameDescription
Public methodApplyPatches

Applies a patch to the properties of an object. Allows an update to some of the properties.

It is possible to apply a patch to the properties of a generic object, that is not persistent. Such a patch is called a soft patch. In that case, the result of the operation on the properties (add, remove or delete) is not shown when doing GetProperties and only a GetLayout call shows the result of the operation. Properties that are not persistent are called soft properties. Once the session is over, soft properties are cleared.

Applying a patch takes less time than resetting all the properties. 
Public methodApplyPatchesAsync

Applies a patch to the properties of an object. Allows an update to some of the properties.

It is possible to apply a patch to the properties of a generic object, that is not persistent. Such a patch is called a soft patch.

Properties that are not persistent are called soft properties. Once the session is over, soft properties are cleared.
