  1. Click Merge Volumes Command .

  2. Select the first volume to merge.

    SHARED Tip You can select the volumes from a graphic view or from the Workspace Explorer.

  3. Select additional volumes to add.

    SHARED Tip You can merge volumes that are adjacent or overlapping.

  4. Review the selected volumes, and make any necessary changes using the Operand List dialog.

  5. Specify a name for the volume in the Name box.

  6. Select a volume type from the Type list.

    SHARED Tip The list in the Type box provides only the last few volumes selected from the catalog. Choosing More displays the Select Volume Dialog, which allows you to select any type of volume found in the catalog database.

  7. Select a folder from the Space folder list.

    • The default folder is the last folder used when creating a volume. In a new session file, the default is the model (the root level of the space hierarchy).

    • Assigning volumes to a space folder organizes volumes in the current model. See Create Space Folder.

  8. Click Finish.

    The software creates the volume.

  • Unlike bound volumes, the act of creating a merged volume is not reversible. If you delete the merged volume, all the volumes that were merged are permanently lost.

  • To use a volume as a sub-volume for creation of a merged volume, you must have Full Access permissions on the volume object, and its status must be set to Working.

  • You cannot copy or paste a merged volume. You can only delete a merged volume.

  • You can click Volume Properties on the ribbon to modify the volume properties. See Compartment Properties Dialog, Ship Zone Properties Dialog, or Void Space Properties Dialog.

  • The Type list is populated by the reference data and can be customized on a model-by-model basis. For more information on customizing compartmentation reference data, see Compartmentation Reference Data.
