You can create custom filter categories that display component properties in Smart Construction models and drawings.

Custom filter categories can display component properties delivered with Smart Construction, such as component size. After configuring a component size filter category, filters are dynamically created for you to filter the model or drawing. The filter displays all components related to the size property (the property definition SPC_ComponentItem_Size). Custom filter categories can also display custom component properties that are not delivered with Smart Construction, such as rooms. After configuring a room filter category, the model or drawing displays filters related to the particular room.

Creating a custom filter category based on component properties is a multi-step process:

  • Modify the tool schema to publish the property you want to display in the filter.

  • Publish models or drawings containing the properties to SmartPlant Foundation.

  • Extend the Smart Construction schema to include custom properties not delivered with Smart Construction.

  • Map the component property to Smart Construction.

  • Retrieve the published models and drawings into Smart Construction from SmartPlant Foundation.

  • Create and configure a new filter category for Smart Construction.

  • Verify the filter displays correctly in a Smart Construction model or drawing.
