Section and Panel Storage

Stores structural sections or panels in a specific area of the hierarchy. Structural sections or panels can be associated with a grid plane or a framework/sub-framework element.

If a storage area is not defined prior to creation of a section or panel, an error message displays summarizing the problem.

There are two different modes available for the storage of structural elements:

• Grid Storage

• Manual Storage

The state of the structural storage setting (grid storage or manual storage) is saved and restored between sessions.

If the structural storage area is locked, then the structure and framework are also saved and restored between sessions.

The serialisation file is stored in the AVEVA_DESIGN_USER directory, and is named structural-storage.pmldat.
