Edit Compartment Element Details

To edit the details of a compartment element, double-click on the element row. The Details window for the element is then displayed. For example:

Note:
Connector type compartment elements cannot be edited. These are "place-holder" elements which are automatically added to automatically generated compartments (for example, those created for incomers and couplers).

• The automatically generated names displayed in the Name field are taken from the short form name of the selected compartment element type, suffixed with a number. For elements from compartment typicals, these cannot be changed. For other elements, these may be amended if required.

• Add or edit details in the Catalogue Information section of the window as required. The details in this section can also be completed by selecting an element from the Compartment Elements Catalogue.

• If an element is selected from the catalogue, the details of the element in the compartment are automatically changed when the details if the catalogue element is changed.

• Details of elements selected from the catalogue can only be changed directly by "customizing" them: the fields in the Catalogue Information section of the window are not accessible by the user. Customizing breaks the link between the element in the compartment and the catalogue element so that changes to the catalogue element will no longer result in the compartment element being changed.

• Click the Customize button. A message is then displayed requesting that the user confirm that customisation is required. Click Yes. The fields in the Catalogue Information section then become editable.
