While placing the valve or any fitting tag in P&ID

[shriram.khanapure]

When I place any valve or fitting on vertical pipeline in P&ID the tag also gets placed vertically.

By editing Annotation property of orientation to "Force Horizontal", the tag got placed horizontal, but getting placed below the valve or fitting. It should get placed exactly in front of (right or left side) the valve or fitting.

In P&ID there are many numbers of valves or fittings, we need to place on vertical pipelines. We used to rotate it manually by "Rotate" command or move the placed tag by "move" command.

If we will get it placed left or right side of the valve or fitting, it will save much time in preparing P&IDs.

Experts, kindly check whether, this can be done.

Thanks.

There are options to place the tag with an offset position and force the placement to be vertical, horizontal or aligned.  We generally do not have the tag auto-placed and place the tag manually.  Though I agree it would be very nice to include a rotation option.  There is a scale option, but no rotation.
