Dimensioning without Catalog or Spec Search

If the Spec Search > Use Specification default setting is set to False, the specification will not be used and all dimensioning will be handled through the BOREARRAY attribute on the parts.

When a new branch is created, the boresize will be picked up from the default bore size that is set up in the current pipeline.

When inline parts such as valves, reducers . are dropped into a branch, the bore will be picked up from the upstream component.

In case a size-changing or branching component will be dropped, the system will prompt the user for a 'Leave bore?' or 'Branching bore?'. In all other cases the system will automatically pick up the bore size from the element it will be connected to.

The bore-question dialog

The Resize and Refit operations and related propagation settings operates in the same way for dimensioning with or without spec search.
