Plantspace DS 08.09.04.52 Losing the valve number when I place valves

When we are placing valves and we put in the valve number, after placement and I look at the valve using the 'edit label' tool this information is not shown.

  • Hi Andrew;

    The only time I've seen this before is when the rimref.dat doesn't match the label postion in the PSDS database for the attribute.  Can you re-create the label position fle (rimref.dat)?  

    When you place a component in the interface, it reads the label info from the database (ATTRDEFN table) in order to figure out where to write the attribute values.  However, when you do a Label Read operation, it reads from the rimref.dat (does not go back to the database), so if they are out of synch, you will get strange results.

    The reason for using the rimref.dat on reads, is to reduce the amount of chatter to the database.

    Hope that helps,
