Edition Section

The Edition section provides commands for designing 2D diagrams of piping systems.

This page discusses:

Flyout for Creating Layout, Sheet, and Diagram Views
Flyout for Managing Space Link
Flyout for Creating Pipe, I&C Route, and Connection
Flyout for Managing Spreadsheet
Flyout for Managing Editability


	Create New Reference Inserts a new reference under the functional, logical or physical node. Select a node in the tree to position the new reference. Enter a name for your object and click OK.
	Create From Existing Reference Inserts an existing reference under the Logical node. Select the desired reference in the tree.
	Insert New User View See Flyout for Creating Layout, Sheet, and Diagram Views
	Insert Frame And Title Block Inserts a frame symbol in the background view. Select it in the list and click OK. The symbol is retrieved from the Data Setup. See Placing a Frame and a Titleblock in a Background View.
	Insert Symbol Representation Creates a symbol representation in a logical/physical component. Select a logical/physical component. Enter a name, and then click Finish. See Creating a Symbol Representation.
	Create Space Link See Flyout for Managing Space Link
	Select Line ID Checks members of a logical line ID. A logical line ID or a member of the line ID can be selected either from the tree or from the 2D graph. See Selecting a Line ID.
	Transfer Line ID Adds or removes members from the line ID. In the tree or in the 2D graph, select the line ID from which you want to remove or add members. See Transferring a Line ID.
	Create Line ID Creates a line ID and sets standard, nominal size and pipe specification attributes. To define additional attributes, select Launch line ID properties after creation. See Creating a Line ID.
	Merge Line ID Merges one line ID to another line ID. Click From and select the line ID from which you want to add objects. Click To and select the destination line ID. Click Merge. See Merging Line IDs.
	Propagate Nominal Size Attribute Modifies the Nominal Size attribute of a piping component and propagates it to other piping components. For components connected, modifying the nominal value of one component, modifies the nominal value for all the others. See Modifying/Propagating a Piping Component Nominal Size.
	Create Connection See Flyout for Creating Pipe, I&C Route, and Connection
	Spreadsheet Displays the selected structure in the Spreadsheet. See Flyout for Managing Spreadsheet
	Switch to Edition with Children Switches to edition a selected function/logical component and its first-level children. See Flyout for Managing Editability

Flyout for Creating Layout, Sheet, and Diagram Views


	Insert New View Inserts a view containing a diagram view. Enter a name for your view and click Finish. See Creating a Diagram View.
	Insert New Sheet Inserts a new sheet. Enter a name for your sheet and click Finish.
	Insert New Layout Inserts a new layout. Enter a name for your layout and click Finish.

Flyout for Managing Space Link


	Create Space Link Creates links between logical components and space references. Select the logical component and retrieve the space references. See Creating Space Links.
	Delete Space Link Deletes links between logical components and space references. Select the logical component, the space reference, and click Delete Relation. See Deleting Space Links.

Flyout for Creating Pipe, I&C Route, and Connection


	Create Pipe Creates and routes a pipe. Select a line ID, and then select the components to be connected. See Routing a New Pipe.
	Create I&C Loop Creates and routes an I&C route. I&C routes are systems made to perform measurement and control processes. Select the ports of the two components to be connected. See Creating and Routing Instrumentation and Control Routes.
	Create Connection Creates a logical connection between two logical components. Select the two components to be connected. Select a type, and then click Next. Enter a name for the logical connection, and then click OK. See Creating Logical Connections.

Flyout for Managing Spreadsheet


	Spreadsheet Displays the selected structure in the Spreadsheet. See About the Spreadsheet.
	Floating Spreadsheet Displays the content of a model in a table in the same tab. See About the Floating Spreadsheet

Flyout for Managing Editability


	Switch to Edition with Children Switches to edition a selected function/logical component and its first level children. This command helps edit and then save your modification on this function/logical component and on its first level children.
	Switch to Read only with Children Switches to read-only a selected function/logical component and its first level children. This command helps reserve the edition of this function/logical component and its children.
