Name of the generated E3D element

The name of the E3D element is based on the name of the pipeline and PCF COMPONENT-IDENTIFIER:

If a PCF PIPE component is used (for example, the mapping is not complete) it will be represented by two ATTA elements with additional P:1 and P:2 at the end of the name:

Mapped components

Example of imported mapped PCF data.

Partly mapped components

In this case, the elbow and weld components were not mapped. The dashed line suggests that there is a change of direction. ATTA ID:84/P:1 lies on the pin 1 and ATTA ID:84/P:2 lies on the pin 2.

No mapped components

If non-components are mapped, the PML macro will generate only the path of the pipeline. In this case, the path is set only by the PIPE PCF components, each represented by two ATTA elements.
