Can anyone refer me to a discussion in this forum or another which would help a long time AutoPipe user adapt to Caesar?

After years on AutoPipe, I'm picking up Caesar again. Simple items like changing the pressure & temperature over a range of elements are giving me fits.

Since my company imports geometry (but not properties) I have to go in to modify things after they are modeled. I understand changes flow forward through CAESAR II's elements, but this is turning out to be very cumbersome. I intend to assign a pressure to a line and end up assigning it to the line, it's trunnions, and all successive lines. When I change the trunnion back to 0 pressure, all successive lines follow suit. Now lather rinse repeat for every break going forward.

There's gotta be a better way, right?
