Import Tags to
PlantSight
|
The
Import Tag
Instances option has been enhanced to allow you to import new
graphical and non-graphical tags from an external database file directly to a
PlantSight iModel. Previously you were only able to import non-graphical tags
(PBS items and Pipelines) to the local drawing.
|
Snap to Active
Point
|
Functionality has been added
which lets you place components at a known distance with regards to the Active
Point of a bend component. You will be able to snap to the Active Point and set
it as the origin point for placement.
|
Auto Align Accu
Draw
|
A configuration variable can
be added which will
"Auto Align
AccuDraw" when
routing pipe between components on different planes. Default behavior makes it
hard to snap to some OpenPlant Modeler components unless they lie along the
same plane.
By adding the following variable using the
Configuration Variables dialog you will be able to route pipe any way you want.
OPM_LINEAR_ON_SNAP_DONT_PROJECT
|
PlantSight iModel
Info
|
The following keyin has been
added which displays information for the active PlantSight iModel in the
Message Center.
MECHADDIN PLANTSIGHT
IMODELINFO
Once the keyin has been entered, the message
center displays the information as shown below:
|
Project Wide
Reports
|
New functionality has been
added when working in a Connected project to run Project Wide reports using the
data stored in PlantSight.
|
Pipeline
Manager
|
The Pipeline Manager now has
the ability to launch the Isosheet Manager without the need to select a
pipeline.
|
Flexible Hose
Manipulation
|
Functionality has been added
to
manipulate the path of a flexible hose
after it has been placed.
|
Offline Tag
Reservation
|
Tags which were placed while
offline in a connected workset will be reserved when the user goes online and
syncs the changes with PlantSight. The Duplicate Tags dialog will display for
tags which were not able to be reserved.
|
Designate a Snapshot Drawing
|
The snapshot feature will
allow a user to
designate a DGN as a
"snapshot" where you can only reference out
data to that dgn. This will allow multiple users the ability to modify the
contents of the file but they will not be able to commit the changes to the
PlantSight. This is useful when creating drawings from data in the PlantSight.
|
Updated
Configuration Variables
|
The OpenPlant configuration
variables have been updated to provide a consistent format and to deprecate any
obsolete variables. Refer to the
OpenPlant Configuration
Variables section for details on the OpenPlant specific variables which
can be defined.
|
Bolt
Calculation
|
New configuration variables
have been added to improve functionality for calculating bolt lengths. Refer to
the
OpenPlant Configuration
Variables section for details on the new variables.
|
Merge into Master
Consistency
|
New keyin commands have been
added to allow for consistency when using the
Merge into Master functionality when
running in Microstation mode. Either of the following keyin commands can be
used to turn off the OpenPlant handlers including Modeler, Support Engineering
and SMC components:
- Mechaddin WipeData
Handler - This command deletes the OpenPlant component handlers.
- Mechaddin WipeData EC
- This command deletes the OpenPlant handlers
as well as the EC data.
|
Merge into Master
in Sheet View
|
The Merge into Master command
is supported when working in a
Sheet View. The keyin commands required
when working in a Model view are not needed when working in a Sheet View.

Structural
Synchronizer (11.00.00.15)
|
OpenPlant Modeler
now is installed with Structural Synchronizer version
(11.00.00.15) which is compatible with all Plant and Building applications.
|
Create Custom
Equipment from Parametric Cell
|
Users can now create custom
equipment from a parametric cell.
|
BRCM Support
(Technical Preview)
|
OpenPlant Modeler
has included the option to include a BRCM ribbon with
Raceway and Underground System design tools. The option to install the
Bentley Raceway and Cable Management
tools is available during the
OpenPlant Modeler
installation process.
Use the
OPPA to configure BRCM to be used in
OpenPlant Modeler
for the respective workset.
Note: See the
section below for details on Technical Preview Features.
