Functionality for User Fields when using iModel connectors

When a 3D model is imported directly into a Synchro Control project within the Synchro 4D Pro application (using File > Import), it is possible to create user fields. For example, I could import a 3D model and then I could set up a User Field called 'Model Name' and I could type the name of the 3D model that I just imported so that it looks like image 1.


If a 3D model hasn't been directly imported and instead is connected through an iModel connector, then it is not possible to edit any user fields. This means that I can't type the model name into the Model Name field. I can then only see a list of model numbers meaning that I would need a separate document outside of Synchro telling me all the names of the models as I wouldn't be able to remember all of the model numbers.


It would be very helpful if you could adjust the functionality so that it is possible to edit user fields against models that are connected via the iModel connections.
