Changing Polygon Colour or Linetype

I'm currently trialling ACA 2010 in our office. In previous releases we used AEC Polygons as hatch and boundary objects for say concrete footing as an example.

Without the properties toolbar, how would I go about changing the linetype or colour of the aec polygon, I don't want to change the layer or a style based override I just want to assign a new colour to an object as the style base is set to 'byblock'. The properties for changing linetype, scale and colour aren't in the properties palette either.

Is this a bug or is there a correct workflow I must assume from now on?

Right click and go to "Edit AEC Object Style". The boundaries are part of the display properties.

My solution was to import the properties panel into ACA's (2012) CUIx from the AC CUIx. Plus other stuff that where missing like Groups, Selection, and the separate Clipboard panel.
