Failed to Enable AutoPLANT Project for OpenPlant

Overview

AutoPLANT Projects created before AutoPLANT SS5 should be enabled for OpenPlant before using it with AutoPLANT SS5 or more latest versions.

However, while attempting to enable AutoPLANT for OpenPLANT using Project Administrator it fails to do so for mixed metric project.

Problem Description

1. In Mixed Metric Project root, remove OpenPlant.pcf file.
2. Using Project Administrator, select SAMPLE_MMETRIC Project.
3. Right Click in OpenPlant Isometrics section and select "Enable For OpenPlant".
4. Error will be shown as 'Failed to enable AutoPLANT project SAMPLE_MMETRIC for OpenPlant'.

Steps to Resolve

Create copy of mmetric folder and rename it to Mixed Metric in these folders:

• C:\Program Files (x86)\Bentley\Plant V8i\Config\
• C:\Program Files (x86)\Bentley\Plant V8i\Base\Project\OpenPlant\

The project should now be enabled to create Iso's using OpenPLANT Isometric Manager
