Modifying the seed file for OPIM in AutoPLANT

Brian Lund — Mon, 30 Jun 2014 19:53:09 GMT

Is there any good documentation that walks someone through the process of changing the OPIM seed file to use our custom formats. I'm trying to do this in AutPLANT so my format is in DWG.

Running OPIM with AutoPLANT

I realize this is going to be a very generic question but has anyone had any luck running Isos using OPIM in AutoPLANT. I've tried a couple of times and it says it runs successfully but when I open the dwg file it creates it's garbage. The format is sitting in the middle of what looks like random lines thrown all over the place. Kind of looks one of those Isos you'd get with the Pass errors in IsoGen. I've tried running line with our usual Hi-Purity stuff and some with OOB SS150 components. Same deal.

What the heck am I missing?

Also think it's pretty cheap to make me learn a new CAD system (Microstation) just so I can look at or play with my Isos.

Hi-Purity in OpenPlant

Does OpenPlant support Hi-Purity components like AutoPLANT does?

Problem with loading Iso Manager with AutoPLANT SS5

Brian Lund — Mon, 31 Mar 2014 13:47:49 GMT

I just posted a rant about support so I guess I should ask my question here also. I'm trying to load AutoPLANT SS5 and OP Isometric Manager to do some testing. SS5 goes in fine but when I try and load OPIM I get and error that says to check my internet connection or provide proxy settings. The internet connection is fine so I'm guessing it's trying to do something our firewall doesn't like. I need to provide justification for using proxy settings for our IT department so can someone explain what is going on?

Lack of Support from Support

Is any body else experiencing a notable lack of support from the support section. I've got an SR I filed in mid-March and not only has it not been responded to, there hasn't even been an analyst assigned. Bentley used to supply some of the best support around but over the last few years it has just gone down hill.
