Enable spec validation to update bolts and gaskets.

Spec validation tool allows mass model updates when specifications are updated. Often specs are in early design stages when modeling starts. When bolts or gaskets have updates, replacing these components as currently setup takes a significant amou...

Ability to add the File Name to Piping Components

In a File Based CAD Environment, the File Name is used to identify systems and other details about a model. Currently, users need to add this data manually to different piping and equipment components. When a file name changes, we find that design...

Validate from Spec using user defined properties

When we run a Validate from Spec command, by default OPM uses SPEC ID to validate all the other properties of Piping Component. I have some older models that have duplicate SPEC IDs. If we had the ability to tell OPM to use a different property fo...

BOLT LENGTH FROM SPEC + WAFER JOINTS

OPM has a config variable OPM_CALCULATE_BOLT_LENGTH which controls if the tool automatically calculates the required bolt length or uses the value from the Spec. We would like to use the values defined in our spec in all cases, except for Wafer ty...

Merge into Master should be supported in OpenPlant Modeler

In MicroStation, and other design tools like OpenBuildings Designer, the reference tool -Merge Into Master is supported. In OpenPlant Modeler, this is not supported and removes the EC Data associated to the components.

Graphics for Bolts

We would like to have a tool which converts the symbols of bolts to real graphics as an option. Either a switching option to select symbol or real graphics while placing bolts or a macro that will convert all the bolt symbols to real graphics fetc...

Connections between different component sizes

We use OPM_MATCH_PROPERTY_MAP_NOMINAL_DIAMETER variable in our projects for Poly to Steel pipe size mapping. This variable works only when you comment out OPM_ATTRIBUTESTOCHECK variable which is not ideal solution because it allows connection betw...
