iso valve operator direction

[bajzik]

Hi

how can I change the valve operator direction e.g. from UP to DOWN and eventually rewrite quotes "UP" and "DOWN" in iso drawing (e.g. "OPERATOR UP") to another language?

Thank you in advance.

  <ValveOperatorDirectionAliasMappings>
    <DirectionAliasMapping UP="UP"/>
    <DirectionAliasMapping DOWN="DOWN"/>
    <DirectionAliasMapping NORTH="NORTH"/>
    <DirectionAliasMapping SOUTH="SOUTH"/>
    <DirectionAliasMapping EAST="EAST"/>
    <DirectionAliasMapping WEST="WEST"/>
  </ValveOperatorDirectionAliasMappings>

see in the File "%:\<<Project>>\Isometric\BoltSizeMappings.xml"

Within the boltsizemappings.xml we are editing this variable for all iso templates.

Within one project we have iso templates to work with locacl operator coordinates (x,y,z) and global (fwd, stb, el).

Could you please provide a solution how to use two settings in parallel? Maybe some if command?

Currently we need to turn one option on and second off.

<ValveOperatorDirectionAliasMappings>
<DirectionAliasMapping UP="UP"/>
<DirectionAliasMapping DOWN="DOWN"/>
<DirectionAliasMapping NORTH="PORT"/>
<DirectionAliasMapping SOUTH="STB"/>
<DirectionAliasMapping EAST="FWD"/>
<DirectionAliasMapping WEST="AFT"/>
<!--
<DirectionAliasMapping UP="UP"/>
<DirectionAliasMapping DOWN="DOWN"/>
<DirectionAliasMapping NORTH="+Y DIRECTION"/>
<DirectionAliasMapping SOUTH="-Y DIRECTION"/>
<DirectionAliasMapping EAST="+X DIRECTION"/>
<DirectionAliasMapping WEST="-X DIRECTION"/> -->
</ValveOperatorDirectionAliasMappings>
