&lt;h1 id="mcetoc_1h0imet4l0" data-userway-s4-zoom-styled="true"&gt;Background:&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;p data-userway-s4-zoom-styled="true"&gt;This article is about a BUG which has been fixed. The BUG was if a 3D Cable symbol was saved with &amp;quot;Shared Cell&amp;quot;. &lt;strong&gt;BUG#884530&lt;/strong&gt;. This issue was fixed in OpenUtilities Substation U13.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The issue that the user face is that when they are trying to place Conductor Accessories Cable Clamps, Couplers, BUS Couplers, BUS Supports etc.&amp;nbsp;on Conductors using the &lt;strong&gt;Cable&lt;/strong&gt; Method the were not able to place the symbols correctly. This would happen due to two reasons.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;1. Already Placed Cables/BUS .&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;2. Inserting New Cables/ BUS in Model.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2 id="mcetoc_1h0imet4m2" data-userway-s4-zoom-styled="true"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. Already Placed Bus.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p data-userway-s4-zoom-styled="true"&gt;This steps needs to be followed when the issue can only be seen with Cables which has been already placed&amp;nbsp;and when a new cable is placed from using symbol from the Catalog with name name the issue cannot be reproduced.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. Open the 3D layout page where the cable is located.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. Select the Cable and &lt;strong&gt;Right Click &amp;gt;&amp;gt; Properties&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img style="max-height:350px;max-width:550px;" alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/1100x700/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-62/pastedimage1684253890396v1.png" data-uw-rm-ima="un" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3.

&lt;h1 id="mcetoc_1h0imet4l0" data-userway-s4-zoom-styled="true"&gt;Background:&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;p data-userway-s4-zoom-styled="true"&gt;This article is about a BUG which has been fixed. The BUG was if a 3D Cable symbol was saved with &amp;quot;Shared Cell&amp;quot;. &lt;strong&gt;BUG#884530&lt;/strong&gt;. This issue was fixed in OpenUtilities Substation U13.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The issue that the user face is that when they are trying to place &lt;strong&gt;Couplers&lt;/strong&gt; on Conductors using the &lt;strong&gt;Cable&lt;/strong&gt; Method the were not able to place the symbols correctly. This would happen due to two reasons.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;1. Already Placed Cables in the drawings.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;2. Cables in the Catalog with the issue.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h1 id="mcetoc_1h0imet4m1" data-userway-s4-zoom-styled="true"&gt;Steps to Accomplish&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;h2 id="mcetoc_1h0imet4m2" data-userway-s4-zoom-styled="true"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. Already Placed Cables in the 3D Drawings.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p data-userway-s4-zoom-styled="true"&gt;This steps needs to be followed when the issue can only be seen with Cables which has been already placed&amp;nbsp;and when a new cable is placed from using symbol from the Catalog with name name the issue cannot be reproduced.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. Open the 3D layout page where the cable is located.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. Select the Cable and &lt;strong&gt;Right Click &amp;gt;&amp;gt; Properties&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img style="max-height:350px;max-width:550px;" alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/1100x700/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-62/pastedimage1684253890396v1.png" data-uw-rm-ima="un" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. In the Properties dialog select &lt;strong&gt;Cell: &amp;quot;Symbol Name&amp;quot; &amp;gt;&amp;gt; Cell &amp;quot; Symbol Name&amp;quot; &amp;gt;&amp;gt; Bspline Curve&lt;/strong&gt;. Then change the level to&amp;nbsp; &amp;quot;&lt;strong&gt;TDS_VARSYMBOL_BASELINE&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img style="max-height:450px;max-width:200px;" alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/400x900/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-62/pastedimage1684254035669v2.png" data-uw-rm-ima="un" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2 id="mcetoc_1h0imf42t3" data-userway-s4-zoom-styled="true"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;2. Cables in the Catalog with the issue.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p data-userway-s4-zoom-styled="true"&gt;This method needs to be followed if the user are facing the issue after placing a new Cable in 3D Layout mode.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. Click on &lt;strong&gt;Manage &amp;gt;&amp;gt; Create Symbol&lt;/strong&gt;.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img style="max-height:350px;max-width:550px;" alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/1100x700/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-62/pastedimage1684255210175v3.png" data-uw-rm-ima="un" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. Select &amp;quot;&lt;strong&gt;Modify Existing Symbol&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;quot; in Step 1 and select the&lt;strong&gt; 3D Cable symbol&lt;/strong&gt; using which the issue is being faced. Click &lt;strong&gt;next&lt;/strong&gt; until the 3D Cable symbol visualization is opened.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img style="max-height:350px;max-width:550px;" alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/1100x700/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-62/pastedimage1684255498534v4.png" data-uw-rm-ima="un" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. Click on the Cable and right click &lt;strong&gt;Properties&lt;/strong&gt;. Check if the properties displays it as &lt;strong&gt;Shared Cell&lt;/strong&gt; under elements.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img style="max-height:350px;max-width:550px;" alt=" " src="/resized-image/__size/1100x700/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-62/pastedimage1684255694039v5.png" data-uw-rm-ima="un" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. Click&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;3D Design &amp;gt;&amp;gt; Drop Elements &amp;gt;&amp;gt;&lt;/strong&gt; check all the &lt;strong&gt;options&lt;/strong&gt; &amp;gt;&amp;gt;&amp;nbsp;select the 3D Cable symbol by using &lt;strong&gt;Left&amp;nbsp;Mouse Click.&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
