OpenPlant Isometrics Manager Help

Standalone Isometric Processor (AutoPLANT Import/Export)

The Isometric Processor displays in a Standalone mode when an Isometric is generated from the Import/Export menu in the AutoPLANT Modeler application. When the Import/Export application is launched, the OpenPlant Isometrics Processor is opened and runs in the taskbar until a set of components are selected and optioned for isometric generation.
Note: For AutoPlant users, the Isometric Processor can be configured to generate multiple output formats, including a 2D DWG file. Click Here for more information on how to configure these different outputs.
The standalone process displays much like in the Isometrics Manager shown above with the exception of the following toolbar options:
  • Options: Displays the Options dialog.
  • Help: Launches the Isometrics Manager help.
  • Help About: Displays the Help About dialog
The standalone processor provides the same options in the Context menu as the processor in the Isometrics Manager with the exception of the Change Style option. This option is only available on un-processed isosheets it is not an option since the isosheets are automatically processed when the isometric is generated from the Import/Export menu in AutoPLANT.

Progress Message Column

This column displays messages pertaining to the isometric generation progress of an Iso Sheet as shown below. To help distinguish the different stages of progression, the messages are also color coded in the grid.
