The attributes of Isodraft Symbol Templates are set in Draw, where the symbol templates are defined. They are as follows:
SCale val
Changes the size of the symbol without re-defining the coordinates of the plotted shape (100 = full size).
ORIentation NONE
Specifies a symmetrical fitting which the flow direction is not relevant.
ORIentation FLOW
Specifies a fitting for which the flow direction is important, such as check valves.
ORIentation REDUcer
Specifies a reducing fitting.
ORIentation FLANge
Specifies a fitting which begins with a flange; that is, one which is preceded by a gasket.
FLWA TRUE
Plots flow arrows on the symbol.
FLWA FALSE
Suppresses flow arrows.
DIMEnsion ON
Plots dimensions alongside the symbol.
DIMEnsion OFF
Suppresses the plotting of dimensions.
Fill
Enables default and user-defined symbols to be drawn as filled polygons.
User-defined symbols based on the following SKEYs and defined with ORI FLAN or ORI REDU will be automatically flipped to fit in with the pipeline component sequence.
