Creation of Structural Specs

In the Specification list form, available from menu Display > Specifications, there is now a button Display Spec. Pressing this button brings up the Specification form as before except that the form opens in Read Only mode. In this state the form UI changes slightly – the title includes [Read Only] and changes the wording of two link buttons from Edit Spec Atts... and Edit CAT Atts... to Show Spec Atts... and Show CAT Atts...

The Create menus in Steel Work and Equipment have had the Specification menu restored, moving the Specification World entry down to a submenu next to Create Specification. The Modify menus have had the Specification... entry restored.

When modifying specifications, some non-piping specifications cannot be altered by the form. Attempting to modify such a specification will put the form into read only mode as described above.

This form allows you to access various tasks which administer all aspects of a new Specification. The current version is primarily intended for use with piping specifications and may not always be suitable for other specifications.
