JOINTNUMBERS

Function:

Numbering joints in Spool Drawings on an isometric.

Description:

By default Spool automatically generates numbers for every joint in a Spool Drawing. These numbers can be output on an isometric by switching JOINTNumbers ON.

Note: This function has no effect when plotting isometrics from the DESIGN database.

The joints are sequentially numbered from one end of the Spool Drawing, with each number being given a prefix indicating the type of joint. The default prefixes are:

• F Flange

• S Screwed

• C Compression

  Note: The ‘F, S & C’ codes are ATexts, and can be changed.

The numbers are displayed in a diamond, with an arrow pointing to the joint. If the total number of characters (prefix + number) is greater than 3, the number is displayed in angled brackets; for example, <FL124>.

Examples:

JOINTN ON

Switches joint numbering on

JOINTN OFF

Switches joint numbering off.
