Steel Geometry/Data/Dimensions for Structure 2018 - 07/25/18 11:57 AM

In the past, Cadworx steel users were able to access on the fly all steel data by selecting properties pulling up a steel DAT table. This interface aided in checking and design within the model, details, etc.

With 2018 the general section only shows size, mat'l, etc.
Details section of the same dialog only gives you long description, short description, etc.
Double clicking on component only additionally provides angle, length, weight.

Is there a way to access this same information within the model environment?

THe only way I know how to do this is to launch the steel spec editor and then open the relevant catalog.
