Connector Class Properties

When creating new assets, it is possible to have them interact, in terms of parameter propagation, with other similar assets by assigning connector class properties. These properties control the asset parameters that should be referenced to achieve the desired connection behavior.

The Connector Class Properties command lets you choose the connector class to be used for the asset. It also lets you specify the connector class property values that are to be used. These connector class properties are defined in a separate connector class file in .xml format. A set of system connector classes is provided with the product and is used by both the System Assets and Cloud Assets. These connector class files are located on the local hard drive in the C:\ProgramData\Autodesk\Factory Design Suite(version)\FactoryLibrary folder.

Additional custom connector classes can be defined.
