Pipe Service - Plant 3D

[EEEEE_Liminator]

How do you edit or add pipe systems to Plant 3D?

Hi Elliott,

See attached image. Go into Project Setup.

Plant 3D DWG Settings>Plant 3D Class Definitions>P3D Linegroup

Click the Edit button

Choose "Services" in the next dialog, and you can add/edit services for your project.

thanks,

This looks like it is the solution I am looking for, however I cannot click on the 'Edit' as it is greyed out?  Any reason for this?   (see atttached)

Thanks

[damian_willcox]

Oh yes - click in the "service" row.

Edit is disabled for rows that cannot be edited.

Thanks!

Once the service designations are added in the project properties, how do you apply the service to the 3D pipe?

After drawing the pipe, I normally add the insulation and misc information in the properties window. However, the "Service" designation is not shown under the Process section. In a default project set up, under the General tab of the properties window, the service is set up as an acquisition for the information entered in the Process Section.

I know this is an old post, so please forgive me... I haven't been able to locate an answer as of yet...

Is there a "back door" way to edit the service list? Is it contained in an XML file anywhere? The problem is that we have about 10 people in the project, and we're still setting it all up... but we can't make changes if someone is in any of the files.
