Managing Symbols in a Diagram View

Locating Representations for the Same Component

You can display the different symbol representations of the same component.

Before you begin:
  • Create several diagram views.
  • Create an equipment with multiple symbol representations.
  • In the first diagram view, place the equipment representation.
  • In the other diagram views, place a representation of the same equipment.

This scenario is valid for other electrical components except routables.

  1. In the first diagram view, click the equipment representation and click Switch to Other Representations .
    If two representations are placed, the diagram view containing the other representation automatically opens. If there are multiple views, the List of Sheets dialog box opens.
  2. In the List of Sheets dialog box, select a diagram view.

    Note: If the sheet containing the symbol representation is not opened in session, it can be opened only if it belongs to the current root system. A message appears to ask you if you want to open it. The diagram view is automatically opened and all the logical parents of the view are added to the current session.

    The diagram view opens and the equipment is highlighted.
