AutoCAD MEP 2010

Engineering Data Hotfix

Description of Problem

When importing radiators, the engineering  data are not attached to the inserted radiators, for example "External App ID" or "Radiator Power".

Some external apps are using engineering data to resize pipe systems. When engineering data are added by the .Net API, double values are not set, so the resize command is not working.
