Problem Description User requirement was to add a new property and under Modify dialog box, user should be able to fill in the desired information. Currently the field shows as disabled. See image below: Below steps illustrates on adding new custom attribute to a new property in schema and make it available for editing. Steps to Resolve In Class editor, Open ‘OpenPlant_CustomAttributes.08.11.ecschema.xml’ schema to get the desired custom attribute on certain class, as it contains the list of Custom Attributes. This schema can be found by navigating below path - %Project Root%\WorkSpace\OPModeler\schemas Again open ‘OpenPlant_3D.01.04.ecschema.xml’ and supplement it with 'OpenPlant_3D_Supplemental_Modelingviews.01.04.ecschema.xml’ schema. Above schema can be found by navigating below project path: %ProjectRoot%\DataSet\Schemas. Locate the PIPING_COMPONENT class. On Properties Tab, check for any Property which requires the field to be editable. Select STOCK_NUMBER property here. Add Custom Attribute ‘Property Display Status’ and assign the location like shown in image below. Note- Ignore adding the custom attribute again, if it is already present on some properties. Set the value for both fields as per requirement. Note – User can use options provided under this field like to Hide, Read & editable as per requirement in OPM. Save & Close schema. Launch OpenPlant Modeler & verify results.
