Drawing Representation Settings

The Drawing Representation Settings allow a system administrator to define the appearance of a component, as displayed in a 3D graphical view depending on the following drawing representation settings:

• The range of drawing levels to be shown

• The obstruction level

• The centerline flag

• The tube flag.

The functionality available from the Drawing Representation Settings enables a representation types to be defined, each corresponding to a given combination of these representation settings. Reference types can then reference such a type to change the appearance of a displayed component.

A set of sub windows show all the representation types currently defined, use the upper part of the main window to edit the lists by adding, removing or modifying individual entries.

Entries can be cut, replaced, copied, inserted after or before the current selection.

The File entry near the top of the window shows where the current type set, as listed on the window, is stored.

Each representation type is defined by the following settings:

• A keyword

• A description

• A drawing level range

• An obstruction level

• The centerline flag

• The tube flag.
