    OPPID - How to Change the Unit of Measurement Displayed in the Element Information for the Desired Property

    Applies To
    Product(s): OpenPlant PID
    Version(s): 08.11.10.202 & Higher
    Environment: Windows 7/8/10 (64 bit)
    Area: Customization
    Subarea:
    Original Author: Justinas Lipnickas, Bentley Product Advantage Group

    Background

    This document explains how to change what units of measurement are displayed in the Element Information dialog. I've used Metric Project schema to explain this, but it is generally the same for Imperial projects. I'll be changing the pressure property of the Equipment class in this example.

    Steps to Accomplish

    1. Open the OpenPlant_Supplemental_Units_Metric.01.04.ecschema.xml from your project Dataset\Schemas folder in the Bentley Class Editor application.



    2. Find the Class you will be modifying and click on the properties tab.Find the property you'll be changing, PRESSURE in this case, select it.
    3. In the Units tab, change the Unit value from KILOPASCAL_GAUGE to BAR_GAUGE.



    4. Save the schema, reopen you OPPID application to see the changes.
