Component End Conditions Defined By P-Points

The symbols used to represent piping components on isometrics, as defined by the SKEYs described in the section Catalogue Requirements - Symbol Keys, can be drawn with different end conditions (that means, with different connection types). The connection types which may be represented are:

By default, each SKEY has one standard end condition which applies to all its connection points. A different end condition can be set for individual connection points for the following types of components:
|
BEND |
CROS |
ELBO |
FILT |
FLAN |
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
INST |
OLET |
PCOM |
REDU |
SHU |
|
TEE |
TRAP |
VALV |
VFWA |
VTWA |
P-point elements of type PTAXI, PTCAR and PTMIX have a PSKEY (P-point Symbol Key) attribute which is, by default, set to NULL, so that Isodraft uses the standard end connections defined for that SKEY.
The end condition for a connection point may be changed in PARAGON by setting the PSKEY of the corresponding p-point to one of connection end conditions shown above. To revert to the default end condition representations for a component, reset its PSKEY attributes to NULL.
