Generate deliverables for a SpoolgenDB project pipeline - Intergraph Smart Isometrics - Help - Hexagon

• The steps below are applicable for SpoolgenDB projects only. If you are logged in to a legacy Spoolgen project, see Generate an isometric drawing. If you are logged in to a legacy Smart Isometrics project, see Generate an isometric drawing.

• When generating a multiple sheet isometric, you must use ISOGEN Configuration to set the Drawing Manager.Drawing File.Output File property for the selected isometric drawing style to All in same file. This setting enables you to display each drawing sheet in the drawing file in the Deliverables window. See Deliverables window.

Drawing generation within the Spoolgen Database View window

1. Select one or more pipelines in the Spoolgen Database View window. Use the CTRL and SHIFT keys to select multiple pipelines.

2. Select Generate Drawings on the Spoolgen Database View window toolbar to open the Generate Drawings Dialog.

3. Specify the settings for Isometric Style, Output Units, and North Arrow as needed.

4. Select OK to start the drawing generation process.

   After drawing generation completes, the software shows the success or failure status at the bottom of the status bar.

   

Drawing generation from the Smart Isometrics application window

The following procedure is applicable only if the pipeline is checked out and currently open in the application.

1. For Smart Isometrics, select Generate Drawings on the Standard toolbar to open the Generate Drawings Dialog. For Intergraph Spoolgen, select Generate Drawing on the Tools toolbar.

2. Specify the settings for Isometric Style, Output Units, and North Arrow as needed.

3. Select OK to generate the drawing. After drawing generation completes successfully, the software opens the Deliverables Generated Dialog.

4. Select Upload Deliverables to post the deliverables to the Spoolgen database.

   The software closes the Deliverables Generated dialog, and performs the following sequence of actions: (1). closes the file, (2). checks in the pipeline to the database, (3). checks out the pipeline from the database, (4). re-opens the file in the application, and (5). posts deliverables to the database.

• The software saves any changes made to the open pipeline prior to drawing generation and automatically increments the minor version in the project database.

• The software remembers your settings for Isometric Style, Output Units, and North Arrow for subsequent sessions.

• The options on the Deliverables Generated Dialog enable you to view the isometric drawing, view the log file created during drawing generation, or view extraction data collected from the drawing generation process.

• The software writes the results of the drawing generation process to a log file, which is stored in your local Temp folder.
