Coustom Line Numbers in Isometrics

[milic.srdjan]

Hi to all,

After reading this tutorials

http://www.pdoteam.com/2013/07/complex-line-numbers-in-isometrics/

and

http://www.davetyner.com/2014/01/autocad-plant-3d-how-to-customize-the-line-number-to-match-a-client...

offtopic : many thanks to PDO Team and people from davetyner, I learn a lot from YOU, just keep goin' on

I thought that I start understanding dealing/editing isoconfig.xml, but, but...

In model I have line numbers formated as

FLUID-NUMBERsufix where sufix is a "SMALL LETTER"

e.g. ANV-8a, ANV-8b, LA-10a

but when I start ISOS, for that pipe line, I get good file name (.dwg), but on ISOs I get everything with BIG LETTER (CAPS LOCK)

Look at picture,

Is it possible to keep on ISOs, exactly the same letter size as in model.

[h_eger · Accepted solution]

ISOCONFIG.XML

Set: ForceUpcase="false"

Standard is ForceUpcase="true"

Thank You on so fast response...

This is correct solution, KUDO for You...

Do You have idea, for two more things 🙂

1.On Isometric DWG Settings>Annotation

"End connection annotation" window for Connected equipment nozzles

when I add additional text to window

 Connection text:  <Equipment.Tag> <Nozzle.Tag>,
                             <Equipment.ShortDescription>

look @link

on ISOs I have two more additional empty lines below "CONNECTED TO" text on ISOs. Why ? (We had that problem sience P3D2012)

2. For a pipe component: Pressure Relief Valve, Spring Loaded with

                                       TYPE=INSTRUMENT-ANGLE,SKEY=RAFL

I add in isoconfig.xml new ComponetScheme

<ComponentScheme Name="Instrument-AngleTag" AnnotationStyle="WipeCircle" Tag="XX" Alignment="FlatHorizontal" LeaderStyle="Always" Filter="INSTRUMENT-ANGLE" Fields="TAG" />

to force isometric to show TAG for this type of componet, like for others instrument, but I do not get "bubble with tag in it" 🙂 🙂

e.g. for regular instrument i have similar ComponentSheme

<ComponentScheme Name="InstrumentTag" AnnotationStyle="WipeCircle" Tag="XX" Alignment="FlatHorizontal" LeaderStyle="Always" Filter="Instrument" Fields="TAG" />

and work perfectly

Ideas ?

For empty line below "CONNECTED TO", just put your cursor at the end of the sentence in "Connection prefix" and press "delete" three or four times.

I  solved same issue with this.
