This dialog lets you specify additional object settings before placing the object.

Displays after selecting a number to place from the Insert Cable/Bus Object command.

Note: This dialog only displays if the current drawing mode is 3D Layout.

Setting	Description
Project Options	Opens the project options dialog so you can adjust your project settings as desired. Clicking the down arrow gives you the following choices: Default Grid/Snap Settings - takes you directly to these settings to change the grid/snap. Display Formats - takes you directly to these settings so you can adjust various display formats such as device IDs. Text Settings - takes you directly to these settings so you can adjust your text styles, heights, etc.
Installation	The first part of a device ID which is used to uniquely identify a device in the project. The installation name is the highest level designation and most commonly used to identify any major part of plant, site, or equipment.
Location	The second part of a device ID which is used to uniquely identify a device in the project. The location name is most commonly used to identify a specific area or assembly within the installation.
Device Tag	The third part of a device ID which is used to uniquely identify a device in the project. The device tag is typically comprised of a Tag Mnemonic such as FU for a fuse and a sequential number or page and line number reference. The format of the device tag is user definable in the project options.

Sag algorithm	Applies a sag to variable objects such as cables. Click here for more information on the Substation Sag Algorithm. Note: This option is removed when placing a 3D object of Variable type.
Auto apply relations	When enabled, any parameter names that match part database field names will be automatically pulled from those part database fields.
Manage Relations	Displays the 3D Substation Objects Manager.
