Add New Multi Line Styles in AVEVA P&ID

Multi line styles are stored in a file called PID.MLN. A copy of this file is supplied with AVEVA P&ID which includes a number of default multi lines styles. This file loads automatically when AVEVA P&ID is loaded.

To provide a set of specific multi-lines styles for a project you must add a new path to the Support File Search Path A copy of this file must be placed at this location.

To achieve this, use command preferences and access the "Support File Search Path" node of the "Files" tab.

The path priority is set from top to bottom.

Below there is a sample of a multi-line style set in the PID.MLN supplied with version 6.1.0.16.
