You are correct that the PSW connection is not taken into account. The dimension functions look at filters in order to place the dimensions to the appropriate objects. By default there are no filters that have 'PSW' end-types defined so you will have to add them. If you want the PSW valves to use the same rules as socket weld valves, you can simply add the PSW end-type to the SW valve filter. To do so:
- Open the IsoConfig.xml file found in the isometric style you are using with an xml editor or Notepad.
- Find this line in the xml file:
<Filter Name="SWValve" Value="Type LIKE 'VALVE*' AND (End1='SW' OR End2='SW')" />
- Swap it with this line:
<Filter Name="SWValve" Value="Type LIKE 'VALVE*' AND (End1='SW' OR End2='SW' OR End1='PSW' OR End2='PSW')" />
I assume this is small bore. Do you have the dimensions turned on for small bore and the anchor points enabled for socket-weld valves?
<AnchorPoint Name="SWValve" Enabled="true" Filter="SWValve"> <EndPoints> <EndPoint EndPointType="Center" /> </EndPoints> </AnchorPoint>
Hi, it's not small bore and anyway I set small bore coming from DN6.
in the Isoconfig file this is the Anchor section
<AnchorPoint Name="SWValve" Enabled="true" Filter="SWValve">
<EndPoints>
<EndPoint EndPointType="Center" />
</EndPoints>
</AnchorPoint>
and this is the filter as you told
<Filter Name="SWValve" Value="Type LIKE 'VALVE*' AND (End1='SW' OR End2='SW' OR End1='PSW' OR End2='PSW')" />
what could it be?
thanks
Do socket weld valves of the same size get dimensioned?
The problem is that the isometric engine is seeing 'PSW' end types as 'GL'. I'm not sure if it's a bug or by design but I can't find where this is mapped. To make the dimensions work you can add the following to the IsoConfig file:
To the anchor points add:
<AnchorPoint Name="PSWValve" Enabled="true" Filter="PSWValve"> <EndPoints> <EndPoint EndPointType="Center" /> </EndPoints> </AnchorPoint>
To the filters add:
<Filter Name="PSWValve" Value="Type LIKE 'VALVE*' AND (End1='GL' OR End2='GL')" />
I Do not know,how this is accepted as solution.I tried this and not working in P3D-2017.1
It's solved by the solution in the below link:
it worked 100% for me
