Parametric components are not like the standard fixed Components where they draw their component from an existing cell. Parametric Components are drawn dynamically using coding functionality. This document will explain how to create a new default custom Parametric Equipment Type such as a new Vessel or Tank in OpenPlant PID.
Launch Class Editor.
Open OpenPlant_PID.01.07.ecschema.xml schema.
Navigate to Tank Class, Add New Derived Class, such as TEST_TASK.
Fill Data as shown in below image.
Save all Changes.
Browse to and open the PIDPROJECTSYMBOLS.DGNLIB. The dgnlib file is located in the Project Workspace dgnlibs folder.
