Name	A unique label for the node (within this design). Type a name, or click the ellipsis (...) button to the right of the field to select from a list of pre-specified node names maintained in the project’s Object Type Information in Capital Project Manager. If this field is left blank, the node is named according to any default names configured for the project in Capital Project Manager. Optional.
Short Name	Specifies an alternative label for the node, of particular use when the node Name is defaulted to the name of an associated component (using styling). Optional.

If no predefined information exists, you can enter and edit the Short Description. This attribute is then made available for use in styling and for search queries. Optional.

To create or edit an option expression, click the ellipsis (...) button to the right of the field and use the Edit Option Expression Dialog Box. Alternatively, you can enter or modify an option expression directly within the field. Optional.
