When generating an OPIM Isometric using an A3 Seed file the scale of all fittings, valves, olets, supports etc., is too large. I need to be able to reduce the scale of the cells so that they are smaller in the designated Isometric Window Extents. Typically we use an A1 Seed file so I don't have this problem on other projects, but our client is insisting that we use their A3 Iso Sheet which is causing the problem, basically because the Isometric Windows Extents is significantly smaller. Is there anyway to achieve the desired result having for example Symbols that are half size? I have tried scaling the cells down in the attached Cel Library (lisocomp.cel) but this does not have any effect at all, they still appear too big.
Yes, this is possible. In the later SELECT releases (08.11.09.564 and 08.11.09.470) you can use the new "user overrides" facility. There is a Wiki entry on this (please search for overrides.txt): Create (or edit) a file named overrides.txt in your style config folder and put something like the following in it:
RULE scale down all symbols by a factor 2 INCLUDE = IE_TYPE=.* SCALE=0.5
Please not that this only works for components, not annotation
When you are using an older version, open style.xml and search for the following: <ScaleFactorOverall>1</ScaleFactorOverall>and change 1 to a smaller or greater value
