The following procedures show how you must set your isometric style options to use change management for piping isometric drawings. Start by right-clicking an Isogen Isometric Drawing component or package in the Management Console or Drawing Console, and then click Edit Options to open Isogen Configuration.
Set the Change Management Enabled option
To turn on change management for isometric drawings, select Smart 3D.Drawing Creation.Overview.Change Management Enabled. See Drawing Creation in the Isometric Drawing Options Reference Help.
Set the pipeline splitting option
When using change management for isometric drawings, set Drawing Manager.Drawing Generation.Drawing Splitting.Drawing Splitting (%) n to at least 90 (the default value). See Drawing Splitting in the Isometric Drawing Options Reference Help.
Set the Material List options
To handle material list overflows from sheet to sheet without breaking change management, PPM recommends using the following isometric option settings:
-
Set Materials.Drawing Material List.Settings.Material List Overflow to Continuation Sheet.
-
Set Materials.Drawing Material List.Setting.Overflow Sheet Numbering to Alpha suffix (for example: 2A, 3A, and so on).
-
Enable Drawing Manager.Drawing Generation.Overview.Display 1 of 1 on Single Sheet.
Additional information about setting material list options is available in the Isometric Drawing Options Reference Help. See Settings.
