How to show 3D solids's custom properties in InfraWorks?

Anonymous

I created geological surfaces with Geotechnical module. Then I did 3D solids between surfaces. I add custom properties for this 3D solids in Civil 3D:

Then I imported this 3D solids to InfraWorks. But I dont see this properties in IfraWorks, I cant choose them. Is it possible to show custom properties from Civil 3D in InfraWorks?

What custom properties are you adding to the solid? I don't understand the language you are using, but I have extracted solids from surfaces created with the Geotechnical Module many times and imported them into InfaWorks and configured them as city furniture.

 

I would try importing the solids and configuring them as city furniture just to ensure there is no problem with the solids. If all goes well, then depending on the custom properties you are trying use, there may be a workaround if needed.

What is your process for importing the 3D solids into Infraworks? Are you exporting to any particular file format first or are you importing a DWG that contains solids? Is the goal to bring in the solids as a terrain? If so,v why not just use the terrain data from your surfacea in civil 3D? You can export to a LandXML file or IMX and import into Infraworks. What is the custom data you're trying to import? You can create custom properties in Infraworks. Maybe that would be something you'd be interested in doing?

@Anonymous, I understand what you are trying to do here but this isn't possible yet in InfraWorks 360 but you can vote here to get this implemented!

 

With the use of Property Sets on Solids coming from AutoCAD Civil 3D dynamic corridors or also geotechnical surfaces converted to 3D Solids we need indeed more object information put through to InfraWorks 360.
