Hi I am placing 2 properties "name" and "description" into the P&ID as annotation. This is active when placing the symbol, but the order of placement is not what I want. I want the order to be "name" first and the "description" second. Currently…

Good morning, This is some odd behavior I spotted when placing flange connections. - Draw a vessel, place a nozzle on the vessel - Place a flanged connection on the nozzle - Start a pipe segment a the end of the flange connection. If you…

We created a PID and it was working fine, all the tags were shown in the data manager. It was saved in a network folder. For some reason we don't know, all the data of the file is lost now. It has no links and the information in data manager is gone.

Good afternoon, in plantspace PID I have a title block (drawing_box) that title block has a tag set attached by the name of drawing_box When I create a jsm file for the drawing it creates an object in the jsm file called "DRAWING". That object contains…

Hi, Is there a way to open the class editor without first have to start openplant? Kind regards.

Good evening, I am probably missing something, but when I place an off page connector, I can't select the option to link the connector to an existing connector. I am sure I did it some time in the past but I forgotten how to do it. Is there some…

I have followed the steps and taken the existing gate valve symbol to modify and elongate it into a different symbol. I went through the necessary steps and when I insert from symbol manager into the PID it doesn't fully trim the process lines out of…

Good morning, When converting from PSPID to OPPID we basically start by telling PowerPid witch objects should be converted to with class. Along this line there is a possibility to include one relation in this conversion: <RELATIONSHIP_MAPPING_ATTRIBUTE…

Good afternoon, I'm trying to understand how parametric equipment works. When I look at the classes, the all use a .net class called "Bentley.Plant.Application.Pid.Catalog.EquipmentParametric" but the parametric cell they use is different. I've been…

Hi I am trying to get the Off Page Connector (OPC) to inherit properties from its matching OPC. Currently the following properties can be see. I have created a new property OPC_FOLLOW_NO which is basically a unique number assigned to each OPC…

Good morning, I am searching for a way to indicate a valve as "Normal Closed". We usually do this by filling the valve symbol. In Plantspace this was standard issue but apparently in OPPID not. Is there a way to do this? Kind regards.

Hello, I am looking for a way to check witch schema files are in use by OPPID at a given time. I have created a new schema file and I would like to check if it is loaded when I open a PID. Kind regards.

Hi Has anybody figured out or found a document on how the Place Instrument Parametric function works. I am trying to get custom cells to work with the dialog box, but not having very much success. I seems that the bubbles are control by the ALT_BUBBLE_SIZE…

Good evening, I am looking for a way to visualise all openplant PID elements in a design file? The point is that I am converting old plantspace PID drawings and I am curious to know witch elements are converted and witch aren't. Kind regards…

I am trying to find out how to shorten the spacing between blocks that are inserted at a set distance on instrument line types, like a pneumatic line. I have found the At_PID.LIN but am unsure where the distance value is located so I can alter to my preference…

Hi, I am testing the conversion from pspid to oppid for one of our customers. I have modified the standard ISO configuration to match the setup they have and I am now trying to convert a pspid drawing to oppid. My customer uses a (slightly) modified…

Good morning, I am trying to to convert array properties from pspid - JSM files to OPPID. I currentley have the conversion mappings set as follows: After conversion the properties stay empty, the message logs don't give any errors. Is this the…

Hi, When opening a pspid file in oppid I get an error: the units of this drawing are inconsistent with the currently selected workspace. Please open it in the relevant workspace. Where can I change these units for my oppid workspace? Kind re…

Good morning, I am still testing SS5 to see where it all goes wrong. When I draw a parametric vessel and I place a nozzle on it, the relationships are made as required. After that I use the OPPID move command to move the nozzle down a bit, wich…

Good afternoon I am using the "OpenPlant_PID_Supplemental_ISO.01.02.ecschema.xml" to add custom attributes to the "OFFPAGE_CONNECTOR". I add custom attributes to MIRROR_ENABLED, LINKED_MODEL and DRAWING_NAME. After I add the attributes I save, close…

Hi, I need to display the file name of my drawing in the title block. I can not use the "file name" property because I need to be compliant with my existing tags from plantspace. I tried to mimic the attributes from the "file name" property but that…

I am running Autoplant V8I with windows 7 , 64 bit, computer I am a new with autoplant p&id and am trying to create and modify the instrument lines to meet our company standards. I have done some research, but have had no luck other than I have found…

Good afternoon, I find this very strange. I convert a batch of drawings, all with the same plantspace PID background. I process them in plantspace so I have the correct JSM file. When that is finished I open the drawings in OPPID and let them convert…

Good afternoon, When opening a plantspace pid drawing for conversion I get the following message in the message center: 2-18-12 16:15:27 LOG_ERROR - Bentley.Plant.ModelingFramework.ObjectModel - Exception : File not found Stack Trace : at Bentley…
