I would also suggest adding something to the default values listed under the property name which would give a further hint to the meaning.
For example the property definition for the BarNumber layout object might read:
direction (direction) 1 (#UP)A value -1, 0 or 1 meaning whichever of (left, center or right) or (down, center or up) makes sense for this layout object. #LEFT=-1, #CENTER=0, #RIGHT=1 and #DOWN=-1, #CENTER=0, #UP=1 may be used instead of the numbers.
