Hi,
Am I limited to the fields that appear on the label for a pipe network data band, or can I add my own customized expressions?
Thanks

You can add expressions under pipes and structures and target these in the data bands so long as they are specific to Pipes or structures accordingly, you can not cross contaminate.
That is in expressions you cannot yet target a particular pipes invert from within a structures expression.

Unfortunately I don't think u can...
I can create an expression for a label of a pipe or structure, but I can't use that expression in a data band...or am I doing something wrong?
Oops I'm wrong.. You cant as there are no expressions in the band settings..
However, for the hardened customiser there may be a workaround depending on what you want to do..
You can edit the part and the catalog files to add a custom context, add the expression you want into the part data through either the part builder interface or the parts xml file. You would need to add this to all network parts to get it for everything but it would then be targetable from the data band.
What's the expression you want to do / what are you tyrying to achieve?
Thanks for the reply!
I wanted to show the pipe invert depth...
I know I could use the structure labels instead, by choosing the "sump elevation" property. The problem with that is that I wanted to show the pipe invert depth on the left and right side of a structure, in case they are different...
Any solution?
How do you target those in the data bands? Please could you provide a step-by-step explanation because I've been unable to do so for the longest time.
Thank you
