 I have a question about the peer-type relationships in Bentley Utilities Designer. I know it is possible because I’ve seen it in the example electric data model but I have problems with setting a new relationship between two primary features</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 12</generator><item><title>RE: Peer Types in Model Administrator</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/365749?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Thu, 28 Apr 2016 13:52:38 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:1c2c8b12-0eb0-49ec-933e-41e6a061caaa</guid><dc:creator>Rodney Laurent</dc:creator><description>&lt;p style="margin:0in 0in 8pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Calibri;font-size:medium;"&gt;Hi Nikolay,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin:0in 0in 8pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Calibri;font-size:medium;"&gt;Your objective is to provide a document/file link (e.g., your File feature) to an asset feature (e.g., your Pole feature) in which this document/file may be linked to multiple features.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin:0in 0in 8pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Calibri;font-size:medium;"&gt;Utilization of a peer relationship when not in the conduit model requires both features being associated to have a geometry. A product enhancement is required for this scenario.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin:0in 0in 8pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Calibri;font-size:medium;"&gt;Until this enhancement is provided, you have the following options:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ol&gt;
&lt;li style="color:#000000;font-weight:normal;"&gt;
&lt;p style="color:#000000;font-weight:normal;"&gt;Define a geometry on the &amp;ldquo;File&amp;rdquo; feature, which is likely not a reasonable option because this &amp;ldquo;File&amp;rdquo; feature is not conducive to a spatial location and may be related to several poles.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style="color:#000000;font-family:&amp;#39;Calibri&amp;#39;,sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:normal;"&gt;
&lt;p style="color:#000000;font-family:&amp;#39;Calibri&amp;#39;,sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:normal;"&gt;Add a hyperlink property to the Pole feature (FeatureAttributes worksheet, column Y ExternalLink value = 1), in which the file definition is stored on a pole and is accessible from the Pole&amp;rsquo;s feature editor (examples are found in the BentleyWasteWater Modeling Administrator spreadsheet).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;
&lt;p style="margin:0in 0in 8pt 0.5in;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Calibri;font-size:medium;"&gt;In the case a Pole may have more than one File association, you can either provide FileProperty1, FileProperty2, FileProperty3, etc. properties on the Pole &amp;hellip; Or, define a Pole-File child/sub-feature having one file property, such that the root/parent Pole Feature may have multiple Pole-File sub-features.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin:0in 0in 8pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Calibri;font-size:medium;"&gt;I hope this information helps &amp;hellip; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="margin:0in 0in 8pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Calibri;font-size:medium;"&gt;Thanks, Rodney&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

You were right, part of the problem was the value in the Compound column. I still don&amp;#39;t quite understand the idea of the compound relationships, but whatever.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:inherit;"&gt;I changed the value to No and in the Editor I get a context menu with Add option but then it allows me only to add existing feature. I didn&amp;rsquo;t mention it before but the geometry type of the File feature is DATA. Our idea is to create a File feature via the other features to which it is defined as a child in the peer-type relationship. Now I can add an existing File to the Pole but I need to add a new one via the context menu. How can I do that?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:inherit;"&gt;&lt;a href="/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/5926/Edit-Form.png"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

I don&amp;#39;t see the screen shot of the editor. Could you add that? Does it not show the tab you need, or do you not get the &amp;quot;Add&amp;quot; context menu?&lt;br /&gt;
I do notice that the relationship is set to be compound = &amp;quot;Yes&amp;quot; (column F) which I think is not what you want. Compound relationships are those in which multiple relationships combine to represent the hierarchy of features (for example conduit elements within other elements, but all contained within a single conduit route). In fact, I think that this may be why the relationship is not behaving as you expect.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thanks,&lt;br /&gt;
