Users can use their own plotfiles, including logos and client-specific information instead of the MDS plotfiles.
To do this, put the user plots into a parallel file structure, and then get MDS to search in the user area before the AVEVA area. Change the search path on the MDSPLOTS environment variable, within the mdsevars.bat batch file from:
set mdsplots=%1\pdmsui\des\mds\plot
to:
set mdsplots= S:\AVEVA\MDS12.0.0\user_plots %1\pdmsui\des\mds\plot.
