Assign Specs to a Service
OpenPlant Modeler now allow you to apply a SPEC_GROUP_FILTER attribute which lets you group specifications according to the Service selected. This allows you to limit the number of specs to choose from in the Specification list when defining a pipeline using a particular service.
Open the Class Editor (included with the OpenPlant Project Administrator install) and load the OpenPlant3D3D.01.04 schema as shown below:
- Select the Associated Item List for Pipeline node as shown and select the Service property.
- Add the "SPEC_GROUP_FILTER" attribute to the Service property and save the changes.
- After defining the SPEC_GROUP_FILTER attribute, you need to create new file named SYSTEM.txt (not shipped with default project)in the %Project Folder%\Dataset\Settings directory:
-
Define the Service groups and assign the desired specifications to them as shown above and save the file.
For instance, in the Create Pipeline dialog below, with Water defined as the Service, note that the specification list is limited to A1-OPM and B1-OPM, which were defined in the Service.txt file above.
