Defines the format of the pipeline attributes file. The PIPELINE-ATTRIBUTE-FILE section heading is followed by the identifiers and associated data listed below:
-
DELIMITER-CHARACTER specifies the delimiter used in the pipeline attribute file. (Optional).
-
IGNORE_CHARACTER specifies any character that should be ignored when the application is extracting data for the pipeline attribute file if it is a delimited file. (Optional).
The data items are the -900 to -999 series text type record identifiers, followed by start-col. end-col. or position in file, depending on whether a delimiter character is set. The data after the ! character is a comment for user information.

If the pipeline attribute mechanism is being used, do not add the same record to the project defaults. Doing so overwrites the data when the isometric is being created by the data in the pipeline attributes file.
