    How to Configure the Location of Annotations in Instrument Bubble

    Applies To 
    Product(s): OpenPlant PID
    Version(s): 08.11.10.XXX & Higher
    Environment:  Windows 7/8 (64 bit)
    Area:  Customization
    Subarea: 
    Original Author: Harpreet Singh, Bentley Product Advantage Group

    Background

    User wanted to modify the location of the labels inside the instrument bubble so that gap between the annotations can be narrowed down. This article will explain how you can modify the schemas in class editor to narrow down the gap between the labels inside the bubble. Below is the picture of an Instrument which shows how default bubble is annotated.

    Steps to Accomplish

    To Modify Parametric Instruments

    1. Open Class Editor and load OpenPlant_PID schema.

    2. Supplement it with OpenPlant_PID_Supplemental_Imperial schema.

    3. Go to INSTRUMENT_PARAMETRIC class.

    4. In the properties tab locate DEVICE_TYPE_CODE property.



    5. Modify the Y-coordinate for Origin Offset to 1.5 in 'Annotation Custom Attribute' as highlighted below.



    6. Similarly change Origin Offset to -1.5 for NUMBER property as shown below.



    7. Save the changes in schema and verify the result.

    To Modify Bubble Annotation

    1. To modify bubble annotation for Control Valves or Flow Elements, go to INSTRUMENT_ANNOTATION class.



    2. Switch to properties tab and select TEXT1 property.



    3. Change the Origin Offset to 1.5 for Y in Annotation Custom Attribute as highlighted below.



    4. Similarly modify origin offset to -1.5 for TEXT2 property.



    5. Save the changes and verify the results.
