Just trying the Demo version and the interface is fairly intuitive. But, is there a way to automatically add CS_FROM/CS_TO based on the "Block" they are connected to? For instance, if I have a Plasma display with a input named "Component I/P Pr/Cr/R" and an A/V Block with a output named "Component Video Monitor O/P Pr" and a DogLeg between them, I would like for those to be the associated CS_From and CS_To when I print the connection report.

Currently it is not possible to automatically add port information from the connected products to the dogleg/cable that connects them.

It is possible to report on any attributes of the connected products - you'll see this technique in the from/to Description fields of the Connection Schedule reports - but these attributes exist at Product level (e.g. Room, Location etc) not at the lower level of ports which are simply objects that exist with the symbol.
