I need  backgroud  elevation pipe.

It's possible to do with "position ordinate", but only give's me  elevation at center pipe.

Thanks.

Are you looking for a BOP dimension rather than a Centerline?

Hi,

thanks for all your help. But isn't in front elevation my problem. I'm trying to find a way to get the same information (BOP) that I have in front elevation, but top view (plans), because in top view we doesn't have a line to make a "dimension ordinate".

So, there is a way to have a BOP in top view?

Like always , thank you for all your help.

One of our AEs (Thanks Dag!) came up with this procedure. It's pretty involved but I think it does what you're looking for.

Great!!

Thanks.

 

This is the right way. But we need to change somethings.

 

---

Create Trigger BOP_TRIGGER_INSERT2
AFTER INSERT ON PipeRunComponent
BEGIN
UPDATE PipeRunComponent set EL_FT=round((select "Position Z"-MatchingPipeOD/2 from EngineeringItems where PnPId = new.PNPID),0) where PNPID=new.PNPID;
END

 

Create Trigger BOP_TRIGGER_UPDATE2
AFTER UPDATE ON EngineeringItems
BEGIN
UPDATE PipeRunComponent set EL_FT=round(new."Position Z"-new.MatchingPipeOD/2,0) where PNPID=new.PNPID;
END
