Hello Melissa, Can you provide a few examples of what it is you need? Actual tag formats. A question - is COMMODITY_CODE a property similar to PLANT_AREA or is this a regular property like Description? Is this property value set in the Plant tab of the Drawing Settings dilaog or is this a property on the component similar to DESIGN_PRESSURE? If COMMODITY_CODE is used for all components then I would recommend making it an Associated Property. This way it can be globally assigned and updated as requried. Inline items inherit from PIpe Run via the relationship RUN_HAS_IN_RUN. This is used to pass a property such as SIZE from the LINE to RUN to an inline component. For Example: DESIGN_SIZE on PIPING_NETWORK_SYSTEM is passed to SIZE on PIPING_NETWORK_SEGMENT using a Notify Related Component of Property Value Change custom attribute. Specifically this uses a PIPLINE_HAS_PIPE_RUN relationship to do this.Once this value is on SIZE in the RUN it is then passed from PIPING_NETWORK_SEGMENT to all inline components via RUN_HAS_IN_RUN relationship. This is handeld slightly different in that a specific class (FLUID_REGULATOR) is not used so that the value passes ALL inline components. If your property is like Plant Area - is an Associated Property then this is handled in a slighly different manner. Once you answer my questions abobe I can better assist you with getting the COMMODITY_CODE (Other properties too) passed to inline components. Tony DeRosa Bentley Plant
