Isometric Spool drawing slope

Anonymous

We run spool drawings for our fab shop out of Plant3D using the spool drawing feature.  The issue we are having is having the slope shown(Show hatching in the triangle) when the slope is under 2°.  I have adjusted the Show fall field to .3° and the spool still will cut off the hatching at 2°.  Any help with this would be appreciated.

Hi @Anonymous,

 

I can't reproduce this (tested in 2020). Could you confirm the version of Plant 3D that you are using?

 

Thanks,

Dan

Dan, I was using Plant 2018.  I downloaded 2020 and had the same issue.  I did find a setting that allowed the slope hatch to show on the spool drawing.  In the isoconfig.ini I changed the Non skew angle to .4 then any angle above .4 showed the hatch. 

 

The one item I could not get the spool sheet to show when using the cutback elbow is the trim angle.  If I change the settings to use bends and run line to pipe then change the bend back to a elbow it shows the trim angle.
