I'm stuck in tutorial

I am working through the 3D Sketching tutorial in the help menu of 2010.  In the section "Extruding the Supports", step 9, tells me to go to Direction 1 in the Property manager.  I don't see anything in the property manager.  It reads: Select an entity to view....".  Can anyone help? 

Thanks,
