As a symbol placed in componetes Tie-In Olets type within piping isometrics

Good afternoon fellow

 

I am designing pipes with pipe interconnection points existing within the properties of the component ( Tee, Elbow, Sockolets , WELDOLETS , etc. . ) Filled the " Tie In Number" and put the number that corresponds to that interconexón as did the in Tie symbol in the file " IsoSymbolStyle.dwg " because isoconfig.xml modify the file by adding a " ComponentScheme " within the " Themes" and " AnnotationSchemes " and also add a ' Filter " with the following legend :

 

< Filter Name = " TieIn " Value = "Type LIKE ' T * ' OR Type LIKE ' CROSS * ' OR Type LIKE ' Reducer * ' OR Type LIKE ' * FLANGE ' OR Type LIKE ' Elbow * ' OR Type LIKE ' Olet * ' " / >

 

My problem is that when I generate the isometric of pipe not recognize anything but the " Olets " and does not generate the symbol , but the other components if generated . What you should not recognize me Components " Olets2 " or perhaps will be my syntax wrong ? .

I don’t know if I’m completely following your workflow description here. Basically your isometric configuration and customization isn’t working properly yet it appears. It may be a need to get the proper SKEYs associated with each component. Please review this helpful whitepaper on Isometrics:

http://docs.autodesk.com/PLNT3D/2014/ENU/De-mystifying%20AutoCAD%20Plant%203D%20Isometrics.pdf

 

Also, this section on Isometric Configuration (Advanced) in the online Help documentation has a lot of info.

The images you posted here are hard to see clearly. FYI.

Thanks for taking my question but I solved my problem and their answers were not my solution.

Miguel,

 

I am interested in doing this in my project as well. Please tell me, how did you resolve the issue?

Would you have the component scheme text line from your xml file?

 

To confirm, you added a symbol in the isosymbolstyle.dwg for your custom Tie-Point (with Tie In Number attribute). Then you added a component scheme filter in the xml file to read the Tie In Number attribute and add a iso symbol when that attribute has a value filled out? Am I on the right track? 

 

Thanks!! 

Erin
