Create Draft Symbol Set

The new draft symbol set is an administrative element and must be created below a Section (SECT) or Structural Section (STSE) element. By default, the name of the new draft symbol set is populated with the name based on the owning CATA element name.

The purpose is automatically populated depending on the discipline currently active in AVEVA Catalog.

If required, select the Use Defined Storage Area check box, once the administrative element has been created the Draft Symbol Set window is displayed.

Draft Symbol Sets can own a number of Draft Symbol Links (DRSYLKs) which are displayed in the Draft Symbol Links part of the Draft Symbol Set window.

To add a Draft Symbol Link to the list click Add select a DRSYLK from the list to modify its attributes in the lower panel of the window or delete a Draft Symbol Link click Delete.

Draft Text or Symbol Templates (TXTM or SYTM elements) can be referenced by typing in a name, navigating to them in the Catalog Explorer and clicking CE, or clicking Search to display the Search for Text or Symbol Template window.

The criteria expression determines which draft views the symbols are used on. An expression can be entered or an existing expression can be selected from the drop-down list. Selecting a Draft Symbol Link from the list means that all expressions accessed during the current session are available.
