    Command:
    Command:
    Command: EditStructureProperties
    
    
    
    Command:
    Command: EditPipeProperties
    pipe properties gives me an invert of -0.333 and 164.00
    I'm not following you on this. You picked each end of the pipe and received a coordinate list. You then selected the structure and displayed the structure properties dialog (not sure what was changed) and then selected the pipe and displayed the pipe properties (not sure what was changed here either).

    The pipe properties were different than they were before you selected the structure?

    Are you having running osnaps turned on?
    If you have a technical question, please find the appropriate forum and ask it there.
    You will get a quicker response from your fellow AUGI members than if you sent it to me via a PM or email.

    I know this is an old post but wanted to let everyone know that the free tool in the Autodesk App Store named "QuuxPipeElevationEditor" will dynamically read the invert of a selected pipe wherever your cursor is along the pipe. I use the tool for quickly checking pipe end inverts as well as pipe slopes but only recently realized that it also displays the invert along the pipe as you hover. Good tool!
