About reverse attribute propagation

By default, assembly attributes are propagated bottom-up. Starting from the propagation start point (PSP) , the components are checked up to the root component to find specific attribute values. The first component closest to the PSP provides the value applied to each component above it in the structure. Reverse propagation works in a similar way, but the attributes are propagated downward from the first component after the PSP.

You can control which attributes are propagated downward by adding the attribute title to the preference MRMPropagationReverseAttributes. All attributes listed in the preference propagate in the opposite order: For these attributes, the system checks from the component closest to the root component down the structure to the component with the PSP. In this case, the value of the component closest to the root are propagated downward.
