Provides options for editing the components placed in the model.

Properties

Activates the Pipe Component Feature Properties Dialog for the selected component.

Move From

Click to identify the origin of the move vector. If you do not define a starting point, the software assumes the current location of the component is the starting point.

 Move To

Click to identify the termination point of the move vector.

Run

Specifies the name of the pipe run in which the component is placed.

<New Pipe Run>

Displays the New Pipe Run Dialog. Use this option to create a new pipe run.

<Select Graphically>

Allows you to select an existing run in a graphic view, the Workspace Explorer, or the P&ID View.

More

Displays the Select Pipe Run Dialog. Select More to select a pipe run that is associated with a different pipeline.

Type

Displays the short code associated with the selected component. In addition, the Type list contains the short codes associated with any other components with similar geometry defined in the piping specification for the current nominal diameter. Selecting an entry from the Type list replaces the selected component with one of a different type.

Option

Displays the option of the selected component, if applicable. In addition, the Option list contains any other options defined in the piping specification for the short code selected in the Type list. For example, if two different rating values were available in the piping specification for the short code selected in the Type list, both options would appear in this list. Selecting a value from the Option list updates the object. See Pipe Specification in Piping Reference Data Help.

Name

Displays the name of the component that you are modifying. Type another name if needed.

Flip

Select this option to change the component port that is connected to the selected port. If you are inserting a lateral, tee, or other tee-type branch into a length of pipe or between two other components, only the inline ports of the component are available. However, if you insert the same component at the end of a pipe or at a nozzle, all component ports are available.

 Rotate

Select to rotate the component about the pipe interactively.

Angle

Type an angle at which you want the component rotated about the pipe.

Branch Position

Select the position of the branch centerline relative to the header centerline. Select Radial to place the branch such that its centerline intersects the header centerline. Select Non-Radial to place the branch such that its center line does not intersect the header centerline. If you select Non-Radial, you can specify the distance the branch centerline is offset from the header centerline up to being tangent to the outside diameter of the header.
