Currently the traverse command appears to use the Default feature template.  I have not found a way to easily change this. Does one exist?  As a work around within the task environment, I have added a step before the traverse command and imbedded the "Assign Default to Field" tool.  Unfortunately, this tool does not recognize coded domains and only lets you select a value (see below).  The values below of 8,14,32 represent parcel boundaries, road right-of-ways, and railroad right-of-ways.

Please let me know if there is a better way to deal with this issue.   Thanks

When you are in a traverse, the line type is defined by your feature templates, which are available as a dropdown in the traverse window.

In order to set a default attribute, open up the properties of a given template, then navigate to the attributes tab of the template properties window.

You can also create a new template, and it will appear in the Traverse as well.

Thanks!  That is so funny.  I had not set up the templates for the parcel line feature class.  Its working fine now.
