If the switch Is Equipment Assembly is set to Yes, two additional Feature Symbology entries are added for Top part of the Assembly and the stretchable middle part:

  • Connecting Equipment Geometry Aspect

If it is an Assembly, the Feature Symbology is applied to three parts: Base, Middle and Top.
