Setting Representation for Piping Components

Keywords

REPRESENTATION TUBE CL CENTRELINE

Description

The REPRESENTATION command allows piping components to be represented by a single centerline (CL) or by a 2D outline (TUBE). In some cases, it helps to switch between the two representations to simplify an otherwise complicated view.

Switching TUBE On switches CL Off automatically, and vice versa.

TUBE and CL representations are not instantly updated on the screen. To see the effects of a representation change, it is necessary to replace the affected item in the Draw List by Removing and Adding it.
