Engineering Explorer

The Engineering Explorer can provide either:

• a hierarchical view of items within the currently open drawings only (see above), or

• a hierarchical view of items within all .dwg drawings (intelligent or non-intelligent) in the Drawing Location folder, refer to Folders in the Explorer.

The required option is specified in the Project Configuration Category of the AVEVA P&ID Administration Program. The Drawing Location folder is also specified there.

Basic Engineering Explorer functionality:

• Deleting, adding or modifying an item on a drawing will cause the Engineering Explorer to update accordingly.

• The amount of information displayed in the explorer can be controlled by expanding and contracting the levels using the +/- boxes at the left of each list item.

• If an item is selected on the drawings, it is automatically selected in the Engineering Explorer as well.

• The Engineering Explorer may be displayed in two modes: docking and floating. For further details, refer to Explorer Display Options.
