Isometric Style Setup 12 Jul-11Copyright © 2011 Bentley Systems, Incorporated

Isometric Manager Styles


Isometric Drawings generated in different project stages have to meet different

requirements. We will address the different isometric styles.

The Isometric Configuration tool enables you to set a Default Isometric Style forthe whole project.

If different Isometric Styles are to be used for Isometric Drawing generation,

Design States have to be mapped to these styles.


13/86

Jul-11 13 Isometric Style SetupCopyright © 2011 Bentley Systems, Incorporated


You can define as many isometric styles as required. Isometric Style features can

be set by:

• Using the Isometric Configuration tool.

• Customizing configuration text files located in the project Workspace

directory.

Isometric Style setting using the Isometric Configuration

tool

There are three dialogs available to change the Isometric Style features. They are

the Isometric Style dialog, the Isometric Drawing Attributes dialog and the Label

dialog.

The Isometric Style dialog enables you to specify basic parameters.

• Graphical Configuration tool: This field is used to start an OP Modeler session

and to customize the isoseed file used for creating Isometric Drawings.

• Completed Isometric Design State: This parameter specifies which design

state to set piping components when an Isometric Drawing is created and

placed into ProjectWise.

The Isometric Drawing Attributes dialog is described in more detail in the module

Drawing Attributes.


14/86



The Label dialog specifies the labels to be used on an Isometric Drawing.

Isometric Style Setting using Configuration Text Files

For example, for the As-Built style the following configuration text files located in:

C:\ProgramData\Bentley\OpenPlantModelerV8i\WorkSpace\Projects\OPModeler_Metric\DataSet\Isometrics\Styles\As-

Built\Config

• isoextract.dat: no longer needed.

• node2da.txt: mapping of textnode numbers to named drawing attributes.

• operator.tbl: mapping of operator names (as supplied by OPM) to symbols to

be used in isometrics.

• pcf.ini: configuration for IsoExtractor PCF writer.

• rep_sortgroups.txt: definition of sort groups for Bill of Material.

• report.def : definitions for all reports produced by IsoExtractor.

• scaler.ini: scale settings.

• style.cfg: IsoExtractor configuration file.

• symbolsizes.def : definitions of the basic scaler classes.


15/86



All text files include a short description of the purpose and their content is well

commented.

The file isoseed.dgn located in the same directory is a seed used by Iso extractor

when an iso drawing is created.

Drawing Attributes

Module Overview

Drawing Attributes are used on Isometric drawings to give more information

about the pipeline from which the Isometric was extracted. An administrator will

need to modify the attributes to be used on the Isometric drawings and where

they should be placed based on the company requirements.



• Students should have a working knowledge of MicroStation.


Module Objectives


• Modify attributes that will be placed on Isometric drawings.

• Modify a seed file to customize the position of Drawing Attributes.

Drawing Attributes 30 Jul-11Copyright © 2011 Bentley Systems, Incorporated

Customization of drawing attributes for additional pipeline information

Customization of drawing attributes for additional pipeline

information

Let us suppose you need to add the attribute INTERNAL_PRESSURE to attributes

displayed on an Isometric drawing generated using Isometric Style IFC. The whole

procedure can be divided into three steps:

Customization of selected attributes.

Customization of the seed file isoseed.dgn.

Customization of the mapping file node2da.txt.

Exercise 1: Customization of selected attributes


2 Select Isometric Style > IFC > Drawing Attributes in the Isometric

Configuration dialog.The table which appears in the right window shows the pre-defined

drawing attributes provided by the system for the Isometric Style IFC.

By default there are available 32 attributes for each Isometric Style to be used

on an Isometric Drawing. Each so called Drawing Attribute Collection is

specified by the NAME and by the VALUE .

Attributes can be added or deleted from the default list.


31/86

Jul-11 31 Drawing AttributesCopyright © 2011 Bentley Systems, Incorporated


To delete an attribute select it, right-click and select Delete Attribute.

As the INTERNAL_PRESSURE is not currently among displayed attributes we

have to add it.

3 Navigate to the top of the Isometric Drawing Attributes list to the Drawing

Attribute Collection field, right-click and select Add Attribute.

A new empty section is created to define a new attribute.

4 Type Internal_Pressure in the NAME field.

5 Click Browse in the VALUE field.

9 Select INTERNAL_PRESSURE in the Property field.

10 Click OK.

11 Click SAVE.


33/86



Note: There are another 2 options to specify a Value of a Drawing Attribute:

• Use Expressions: This option allows you to define an EC property for

the Iso_Sheet class to be displayed as the value for the drawing

attribute.

• Using ECProperty: The option is related to the ISO_SHEET class (and

not to a parent class as used above in step 7). When used, this optionenables you to select a property from the ISO_SHEET Property list to

be displayed in the Value field.

Exercise 2: Customization of the seed file isoseed.dgn

We defined a new Drawing Attribute in the last exercise, as the next step it is

necessary to set the location of the Drawing Attribute on Isometric drawing.

Jul-11 39 Bill of Material


Bill of Material

Module Overview

A Bill of Material is automatically generated during the Isometric extraction

process. An administrator will need to modify which properties should be

included in a Bill of Material and to customize their layout on an Isometric

drawing based on the company requirements.





Module Objectives


• Modify a report definition file.

• Modify a seed file to customize the Bill of Material layout.


40/86

Bill of Material 40 Jul-11Copyright © 2011 Bentley Systems, Incorporated

Project driven drawing output and Bill of Material Definitions


Isometric Extractor reports – Bills of Material (BOM) - are generic reports that

operate on component properties and are an integral part of each Isometric

drawing. This BOMs can contain any database information connected with a

piping component existing on an Isometric drawing. Generated reports are plaintext files that can be attached to a text node in an Isometric drawing.

A BOM is defined for each Isometric Style separately.

See Appendix 1 for full description of the Report.def file. The file is very well

commented.

Exercise 1: Customization of the file Report.def

The goal of this exercise is to include the property MATERIAL in a BOM

generated on your Isometric Drawings defined by the Isometric Style IFC.

1 Navigate to C:\ProgramData\Bentley\OpenPlantModeler


FC\Config.

2 Open Report.def with a text editor.

3 Navigate to the section REPORT = SHP, which writes shop material to a

report

Note:

Column definition has the following syntax. :

COLUMN = : :

Where

specifies the width of the column in character positions

is a combination of:

L left aligned

R right aligned

C centered

W wrap, a new line will be added if the length of the expression

exceeds the width of the report

is an expression for the content of the report column.

Any component attribute or string can be used. Example:IE_DESCRIPT + UUID + "and a string" would concatenate the atributes

IE_DESCRIPT and UUID and the string "and a string"

4 Change the line

COLUMN = 19: R : QUANTITY

to


5 Add a new line after just edited lineCOLUMN = 10: L : STOCK_NUMBER

6 Repeat steps 4 and 5 in the section REPORT = FLD which writes field

material to a report.

7 Close Report.def .

Changes done in the Report.def file must be followed by changes in a seed

file used for Isometric Drawing generation. This will be done in the next

exercise.

Exercise 2: Configure Bill of Material layout

When a user customizes the Report.def file it is also necessary to make

corresponding changes in the file Isoseed.dgn, which is a seed file used by

Isometric Manager to create Isometric drawings. Mostly it means to change a

heading of the Bill of Materials.

The goal of this exercise is to customize a heading of a Bill of Material to

include the property STOCK NUMBER added to the BOM definition in the

previous exercise.

Cell Name: GATFL

Description: Customized GATFL

16 Click OK.

The new cell is created.

Note: To save graphics as an iso cell at least one connection point is needed.

As we were using a graphics of an existing symbol, connection pointswere already specified. If not we would have to use Place Connect

Point.

Note: If required we can also place Origin Point or Intersection Point (for

example for Tee components) from the Create Cell toolbar.


53/86



Note: During the Isometric drawing creation Isometric Manager first tries to

locate a symbol in the custom.cel library and if the required symbol is

not found there it is taken from the default library isocomp.cel. It

enables us to use the original name GATFL for the new customized

symbol.

Note: To find a name of a cell used by the Isometric Manager open an

Isometric drawing containing a symbol of a corresponding component

and hover the pointer over it.

Note: When the cell is not present in the cell libraries during creation a red

circle will appear at the position of the missing cell. Hovering over the

red circle will show the name of the missing cell.

ProjectWise Settings for Isometric Drawings


Isometric Manager enables you to post generated Isometric drawings to

ProjectWise and perform additional tasks. There are several settings which

influence this process:

• Root Storage Folder

• Allow To Create Folders

• Allow Design State Switching

• Document Posting

Exercise 1: Root Storage Folder

When you successfully generate an Isometric drawing you can post it to

ProjectWise.

The goal of this exercise is to configure Isometric Manager to select the

Training_Isometrics folder as a root folder for storing Isometric drawings

when you initiate the Post to ProjectWise procedure.


2 Select Project.

3 Click Browse in the Root Storage Folder field.

4 Navigate to ROOT which corresponds to the Documents folder in theProjectWise datasource folder structure.

Exercise 3: Document Posting

An Isometric Manager administrator can specify what has to be done after an

Isometric drawing generation.

The goal of this exercise is to enable Isometric drawings to be reviewed

before posting them to ProjectWise and to delete them from the Isometric

drawings list (right bottom part of the Isometric Manager interface) at the

moment they are posted to ProjectWise.

1 Select Tools > Options or click the Options icon.

The following dialog opens.

Note: What happens with generated Isometric Drawings depends on setting

of Document Posting options.

2 Set Review generated isometrics before posting.


62/86



Note: If the Review generated isometrics before posting option is set the

generated Isometric drawing is available for reviewing when generated.

If this option is not set the Isometric drawing is immediately sent to

ProjectWise when generated.

3 Set Delete document from system after posting.

Note: If the Delete document from system after posting option is set the

generated Isometric drawing disappears from the list of generated

Isometric drawings when posted to ProjectWise. If this option is cleared

the generated Isometric drawing does not disappear from the list of

generated Isometric drawings when posted to ProjectWise. The

Progress Message is changed to Isometric Posted Successfully.

4 Clear List only those components that have Valid Design States.

Note: If the List only those components that have Valid Design States option is

set , only Iso Sheets that have a valid design state (as determined by the

administrator) are displayed in the Iso Sheets pane of the interface.

5 Clear Log Isometric Dataset.

Note: Whenever an Isometric drawing is generated, a Production Log file is

created containing information on the isometric generation process.

When the Log Isometric Dataset option is set , a complete dataset for

the isometric is logged into the Production Log file which can be used

for debugging if the isometric generation fails. When you clear the

ProjectWise Managed Workspace dgn path, the next time you start

Isometrics Manager in a managed workspace you will have to use the

setup process again to identify a new file path for the workspace.

6 Click OK.

The Options dialog is closed.
