Drawing Manager enables you to manage your process and instrumentation drawings by allowing you to create new drawings in your plant structure, open and view drawings, and delete drawings. The following commands are needed to carry out these activities.
|
|
New — Used to create a new drawing. For more information, see New Drawing Command (File Menu). |
|
|
Open — Opens a drawing in SmartPlant P&ID. Drawing Manager checks to make sure that you have the appropriate permissions for opening or modifying drawings. For more information, see Open Drawing Command (File Menu). |

Copy — Used to copy one or more drawings from within the same plant or same project. The copied drawing(s) can then be placed using the Paste command. To copy a drawing from one plant to another plant, refer to the Import Drawing command. Any graphics that have been repaired should be deleted and replaced prior to using this command. |

Version History — Displays the version history of a drawing, provides access to the Compare and Compare With commands for viewing changes between drawing versions, and the View command, which allows you to view a drawing as read-only without opening SmartPlant P&ID.
