Applies To Product(s): AutoPLANT Modeler | AutoPLANT Piping Version(s): - Environment: Windows 7 (64 bit) Area: Settings/Attributes Subarea: Original Author: Dinesh Solanki, Bentley Product Advantage Group Background This article will explain how you can change the weld size as per your requirement. By default the weld size for metric project is 10. Steps to Accomplish Method 1: Modifying the Weld Size in the AutoPLANT Drawing Note: The changes will be drawing specific only. In AutoPLANT Model type in the command line (at_pipingsystem_displayvariables). In the command line type (at_pipingsystem_setvariable "WELDSIZE" "40"). Notice, now that the weld size has been changed. Method 2: Modifying weld size setting to make it project specific Open Config.ini located at location: %Project_name\Config\Config.ini. Change the variable Weld_Size to the required value. Method 3: After using Method 1 & 2 any new components placed will have new weld size . Note - However, to change the old welds size below steps should be used. Download attached Weld.zip file and copy Weld.ebs file to %Project_name\Config\modules\base\Piping\Draw Reopen AutoPLANT drawing and Redraw components as below. Method 4: Modifying Weld Size (.ebs ) file: Open from C drive: Program files (x86): Bentley: PlantV8i: Modules: Base: Piping: draw Choose file (WELD.ebs) Open with Noet Pad ++ Add the following Code to the file (at line 249 make room to add in the following code ) and save the file 'JRO/TSG 19 June 2015 Weldsize=24 '// Weldsize=12 Dim UNITAT As String Dim unita As Double status = at_Preference_getString(UNITAT, "UNITS_TYPE") unita = CDbl (Val(UNITAT)) If unita=1 Then weldsize=(weldsize/25.4) End If 'END JRO 19 June 2015 Change the weld size accordingly ( where the code says 24 / change to desired size ) Open Project from Bentely Document Manager begin to draw pipe if there is pipe existing that needs redraw From the Piping Tab: Piping Tools: Representation: Redraw Comments or Corrections?
