Comment(by lutra):

 Replying to [ticket:2976 jrm]:
 > Properties of a GRASS raster are limited by defaut to
 Transparency/General/Metadata as the user can't modify things like color
 table without using grass' r.color.* tools

 this is because the GRASS rasters are no longer handled via GDAL. So you
 really need to have to use GRASS tools to configure/style them.




  but after loading non-grass raster, QGIS then display all the properties.

 the non-grass raster



 confirmed. It is just enough to open the GRASS raster properties in QGIS,
 close the dialog and then reopen again.
