Command line: GCEDIT
Modifies the properties of multiple components. This command displays the Global CEdit dialog box.
Specifies properties for multiple components.
Each property initially shows no value. Any value modified for a property is changed for all selected components. Properties that are not modified are not changed in the selected components.
Alpha size
Specifies a size-only description of the component.
Short annotation
Specifies a short description of the component.
Long annotation
Specifies a long description of the component.
Line number
Specifies the line number of the component.
Tag
Specifies a tag for the component.
Code
Specifies a code for the component.
Weight
Specifies the weight per unit of a pipe component.
Sort sequence
Specifies the sort sequence of the component in the bill of material.
Coordinates
World
Calculates pipe length based on the pipe component centerline. This option only affects pipe, nipple, flanged pipe, and tubing components. It does not affect fixed-size components such as elbows or flanges. If a pipe component is stretched, trimmed, or broken, the positions of the components are automatically updated along with the pipe length.
Iso
Specifies the value of Length as the pipe length. The length does not change the drawing graphics, but appears in the bill of material. For more information, see ISO Flag.
Miscellaneous
Existing
Specifies that the component is not included in the bill of material. The component symbol is also moved to the Exist layer. In Isogen isometric drawings, the component is shown as dotted and dimensioned.
Insulation or CAESAR II
Specifies that this component either has CAESAR II pipe stress analysis information or insulation attached.
BOM Item Type
Fabrication
Specifies a fabrication type of bill of material item.
Erection
Specifies an erection type of bill of material item.
Offshore
Specifies an offshore type of bill of material item.
Misc
Specifies a miscellaneous type of bill of material item.
OK
Saves modifications and closes the dialog box.
Cancel
Cancels the operation without saving modifications, and closes the dialog box.
Custom Data
Specifies custom data created in the Specification Editor and enables you to edit the value. This data can be isolated in the Line View palette.
