Piping Isometrics & Spools specific attributes in corporate catalog

If the same attribute is defined in dimension table and corporate catalog, then the catalog value overrides the dimension table value. Attributes whose tag starts with "I" are only used by Piping Isometrics & Spools.

Name

Tag

Description

Flexible curve shape in isometric drawing

.gy

Specifies how to draw a flexible curve.

Special 3D iso symbol definition

I3D

Specifies a tag record that draws a special symbol. This can be used when conventional 2D isometric symbols are not suitable for the component in question. Also, this is the only way to define the isometric symbol when the geometry type of the component is DM_GT_FLEXCOMP. These components are not dimensioned in isometric drawings. For more information, see Special 3D iso symbol definition.

Coordinate info for isometric drawing

Ico

This attribute can be used to avoid unwanted coordinates in default annotation. The user can define the attribute for a part, specifying whether it is allowed to put coordinates to the part's points when the point is open-ended. See the script DefaultCoordPoints.api in the project's scriptlib.

Example: A part's geometry type is DM_GT_VALVE, so it has three points. We want to allow default coordinates on the first two points, but not on the third point, so the Ico tag's value is "110".

Detail symbol in isometric drawing

Ids

Specifies the name of the detail symbol that is inserted in automatic annotation, provided this part exists in the isometric drawing. Using the detail symbol allows showing installation details for the component. The settings for detail symbols on the isometric sheet are defined in Automatic Annotation Settings > Other labels > Part's detail symbols.

No partnumbering in isometric drawing

Inp

A part that has this attribute does not get a part number.

Override symbol in dimension table

Isn

Overrides the value of the "h4" field in the dimension table.
