    <p>Here's what I can tell so far:</p> <p>The Id property is the default display property for a thread object (System.Diagnostics.ProcessThread). I couldn't find any tracks of this in any of PowerShell's type files but I can change the way Format-* display threads (requires PowerShell 3.0).</p> <p>By default the format cmdlets prints the Id value of each thread object:</p> <pre><code>Threads : {1548, 1600, 15940, 13996} </code></pre> <p>Formatting cmdlets checks the value of the <code>$FormatEnumerationLimit</code> variable (default is 4) to decide how to format the object. If the result is one object (scalar) only it will print as:</p> <pre><code>Threads : 1548 </code></pre> <p>If it's a collection of items and the collection count is up to the value of <code>$FormatEnumerationLimit</code> (4) it will display as:</p> <pre><code>Threads : {1548, 1600, 15940, 13996} </code></pre> <p>A count greater than <code>$FormatEnumerationLimit</code> will look like (... indicates that there are more objects):</p> <pre><code>Threads : {1548, 1600, 15940, 13996...} </code></pre> <p>I can tell Id is the default property in use because I can change it to another property and see its value reflecting in the output. For example, Here I'm setting the ThreadState as the default display property:</p> <pre><code>PS&gt; Update-TypeData -TypeName System.Diagnostics.ProcessThread -DefaultDisplayProperty ThreadState -Force PS&gt; (Get-Process)[0] | Format-List -Property Threads Threads : {Wait, Wait, Wait, Wait...} # revert back PS&gt; Update-TypeData -TypeName System.Diagnostics.ProcessThread -DefaultDisplayProperty Id -Force </code></pre> <p>Hope that helps</p>

    1. POHow can I summarize an object the same way Format-List does?

    1. CODefinitely useful, but the goal is to have a way to retrieve that text after the colon directly, without text hacks and `Format-List`. Most of the objects I would like to manipulate already have good formatting information... but there is no function that reads that metadata except the `Format-*` cmdlets.

    2. COI must have read your question differently. If the goal is to get the Thread of each objects, refer to the property directly, or expand it using select-object.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
