Specifies the default text to display in the isometric drawing. You can include property values for equipment, structure, or piping references. For example, FLOOR EL.# (StructurePlate.TOS) can display FLOOR EL# 12'.

Select Class Property

Adds a class property to the message. Enabled for external plant objects (equipment, structure, and piping).

For example, FLOOR EL.# (StructurePlate.TOS) can display FLOOR EL# 12' in the Iso drawing.

Message properties (for example: tag numbers or column ID) are assigned when the Iso reference dimension is placed into the 3D model. If a property is not found, the value is left blank.
