This exercise shows how to map a PDMS custom property so that it can be translated by Smart Interop Publisher and then converted to a Smart Interop Object for import into Smart 3D. You can replace the stair HEIGH property used in this exercise with your own custom property and use the steps as a guidel to map your custom property to an existing 3D interface or to a new interface.
