Pipe Network Pipes - Default naming template

[cwall]

Is there a way to add Property fields to the Default Naming Template for pipes in Civil3d 2018? I am specifically wanting to add connected structure names as a property field (such as "upstream connected structure name"). As in the pipe starts at Structure A-10 and ends at A-9. And have the pipe name come out A-10 to A-9 automatically. The only options I see in the drop down under property filters are Network Name, Next Counter & Part Size Name.

It appears those selections are the only options for naming pipes.

I tried typing in some syntax manually into the pipe naming template, (<[Pipe Start Structure(CP)]>), but it was ignored in the created pipe names. I imagine if it had worked that it would only be used in the initial name of the pipe anyway and wouldn't remain dynamic if the names of the structures changed.

Pipe labels seem to be the only way to dynamically include the names of the start and end structures

You can use AutoLISP to rename pipes. Of course, someone will have to write the code to do that, but it is an option.
