    The COMPONENT_WEIGHT property is the only one I can find in the documentation...

    I opened a SysCap design & added decoupling caps to a connector, saved & exported to layout

    I then opened the layout & used quickplace to place those caps

    using 'show element' on the 'functions' of the connector I found it has the property:

    CDS_FUNC_IDENT              = 5a54ab2e-a22c-4647-81a7-dbe8f4005229

    Then looking at 1 of the caps it has the property:

    CDS_PARENT_FUNC_IDENT  = 5a54ab2e-a22c-4647-81a7-dbe8f4005229

    neither properties are documented in 'Allegro X Platform Properties Reference'
