Background

In OpenPlant Isometrics Manager, user wanted to manage various annotation cells which are placed along with pipeline or for tagging. With latest SS6 (08.11.11.87 & above) version a new variable has been added to style.cfg file to control the line spacing for various cell types. Below are few examples illustrated to check the case.

It has been written in context with OpenPlant Modeler and OpenPlant Isometrics Manager. However similar method can be used for AutoPLANT Modeler and OpenPlant Isometrics Manager. 

Steps to Accomplish

1. Navigate to project folder for style.cfg file. Below default path for reference. 
   
   (...\WorkSpace\Projects\OPModeler_Metric\DataSet\Isometrics\Styles\IFC\Config)
   
   
2. Open style.cfg file.
   
   
3. Search for default variable PLANTC_SPACING. See image below.
   PLANTC_SPACING = 1
   
   
   
   Note – By default, it is given as 1.
   
   
4. See image below on default.
   
   
   
   
5. Add PLANTC_SPACING = 0.3 as shown in below image. 
   
   
   
   
6. Save & Close file.  
   
   
7. See result below after modification. 
   
   
   
   
8. User can add any cell with the variable <cell name>_SPACING = value in mm. In above example PLANTC has been described. Similarly many cell can be added based on format specified.
   
   
9. Also check one more setting with value greater than 1 mm. Modify setting as mentioned below.
   
   PLANTC_SPACING = 4
   NOTE_SPACING = 4
   
   
   
   
10. Save & close file. Generate isometric and see result.
