To edit Data Manager information

You can edit the cells in the Data Manager by entering new information, by selecting from a drop-down list, or by copying and pasting.

You can update multiple cells simultaneously and copy and paste data from one cell to another or from other programs. In the data table, read-only cells are displayed with a shaded background and cannot be edited.

When you try to edit data for a Plant object in a drawing that is not currently open, the drawing opens. Read-only drawings do not open when you attempt to edit properties.
Note: To select more than one cell, press and hold the CTRL key while clicking the cells.
  1. On the ribbon, click Home tab Project panel Data Manager.
  2. In the Data Manager, in the drop-down list, click the appropriate data view.
  3. In the tree view, click the node you want to display.
  4. In the data table, click in the cell of the property to edit. If the property is in Acquire mode, click the yellow icon in the cell and click Override mode on the list.
  5. Either enter, paste, or select a new value.
    Note:

    A pencil icon in the row marker indicates that the record is in edit mode.

  6. Press ENTER or click in another cell to commit the new value.
