Applies To Product(s): OpenPlant Isometrics Manager Version(s): 08.11.09.XXX Environment: Windows 7 64 bit & Others Area: Processing Subarea: Original Author: Abhijit Bute, Bentley Product Advantage Group Overview The Weld number is important for fabrication purposes in isometrics design therefore most users assign Weld IDs to the welds as per the project requirements. Problem Description How to use a WELD numbering system with prefixes such as X-001, X-002 or X-0NN in AutoPLANT Modeler’s isometrics generated via OpenPlant Isometrics Manager? The following steps illustrate how to assign Weld IDs with prefixes in the isometric generated through OpenPlant Isometrics Manager. Steps to Accomplish Weld numbering system with prefixes such as X-001, can be achieved, by assigning them directly in AutoPLANT Modeler. Click the "Assign WeldID's" function and input the "Starting Weld ID" to indicate the start of Weld numbering and select the pipeline. Verify the association by selecting any weld and checking the numbering system. Open Bentley Class Editor, search for NAME property in WELD class and check to which AutoPLANT's property it is mapped. If there is other property than TAGNUMBER then click Override and change AutoPLANT 3D attributes PropertyName to TAGNUMBER . In Isometrics Configuration dialog change the Weld Label Text " WELDID " to " NAME ". " WELDID " Label cell is not suitable to correctly display long WELD numbers however it can be modified with the help of this Wiki article: If this WELD numbering is required in the BOM, then in the style's report.def file please add these lines or edit the existing "WELDID" report. REPORT = WELDID INCLUDE = IE_TYPE=CT_WELD COLUMN = 6:L: NAME GROUP = NAME SORT = NAME:A NODE = 61 END Save changes, generate Isometrics and verify the results See Also Comments or Corrections?
