Hello,

In Trimble Connect you can create new editable attributes/properties and link them to 3D Model objects. Please check the Property Set Libraries feature for details.

Currently Tekla Structures does not have a feature that would enable automatically synchronizing the Trimble Connect properties to Tekla. However, you can export the Trimble Connect properties using the Data Table export feature.

Best regards,
Jari

Hello,

A custom property can have one of the 12 different data types that are listed here.  Which data type are you looking for and for what purpose would you use it? 

For categorizing model objects into groups based on different criteria, Trimble Connect has a feature called Organizer

Best regards,
