Below are the additional mappings which can be set in the Export window.
Symbol Mapping maps symbol names with values of component class and the Component URI to all available Diagrams symbols i set in this window.
The Classification column denotes the type of the symbols and the Mapping Attribute column denotes the attribute which holds that information in the shape.

To add a new row to the Symbol mapping table click New and the Symbol Class mapping form is opened. This includes:
|
Symbol Type |
This is a dropdown with symbol type values. |
|
Symbol Classification |
This is a dropdown. Here you get the symbol classification. |
|
Mapping Attribute Name |
This a dropdown. Here you get the attribute name which holds the classification value in the shape. |


To map any symbol in the drawing you have to enter the classification text in the mapping attribute of the shape.
For Example: In the symbol mapping table, there is a row for Pump under Equipment and the attribute name is set to Description.
In the drawing, go to Shape / Properties / Description and enter the text Pump.

In this way both the Symbol Mapping table entry and the drawing are in sync and the shape will be exported and the pump in ISO15926 with its related Component URL. There is also a Delete Context menu on only right-clicking on any symbol type row in the table. It can be used to delete an entry in the table.
By clicking on the empty area the DEXPI Classes window appears, where you can select the component class required (and the respective Component Class URI) then click OK to store the selected values. Click Cancel to not store values.


Selected Component Class and URI will be stored in symbol mapping.
