===Property Flow===

The [[property flow]] system allows properties to appear on assets that are down-stream. It's one of the essential features of ARDI and is an extremely useful way of getting important information to users. 

===Grouping Properties===

ARDI properties can be [[property groups|grouped]] into related properties - this makes it much simpler to navigate visualisation menus and helps differentiate the measurements on your different media types (ie. to tell the difference between **oil** temperature and **air** temperature).

===Administering Properties===

See the article [[Managing Properties|managing properties]] to see an example of how new properties are created, existing properties are edited, and useless ones removed. 

===Status Display===
