i was just curious if it was possible to create a new system type for connectors. for example an air terminals connector can currently be set to: "supply air" "return air" "exhaust air" "other air" "fitting" "global" so i was wondering how to make a "transfer air" and "outside air" or any other system type to be an option for the connector type and ultimately the air terminal. and by doing this it will also be an option to use within a filter for say color overrides per differnt system types.

(see attached image for reference.)

I think we are stuck with the 6 provided system types as you indicate. You cannot create or duplicate from what I know.

The work around is to use Visibility Graphics Filters and color code by 'System Name' contains >  'Transfer' instead of 'System Type'. Then you can color code by 'Transfer Air' etc . . . .
