Actuator orientation for Relief Valve (Angle Valve)

The idea would be to be able to change the direction of the actuator when we place it on relief Valve (Angle Valve). For the moment actuator is placed aligned to the axis of the valve exit, but in real life it will be aligned to the axis of the va...

Control Over Flow Arrow Size

We need to be able to control the scale of the flow arrow so it can be placed on small section of pipe. ATM is places it out in space if the section is too small.

Ability to export IFC

OpenPlant users would benefic from better IFC integration if OPM could export, at least, basic geometries to IFC. As the IFC file format has limitations to store plant design objects, OPM objects not mapped in IFC could be translated to basic enti...

Allow component properties to be loaded from external files

In many cases, project designers and engineers start their 3D models without providing engineering data to modeled components. When the 3D arrangement is approved and designers/engineers need to provide detailed data, they need to modify each comp...

The ability to report on surface area of objects for insulation reporting

We would like to be able to report on the objects surface area for insulation estimation. OPM does not have a Surface area property but a plain Microstation property exists called surface area under the cells section of the properties. Since OPM p...

Connections between ISOSHEET using PlantSight with file based

A “typical” Plantsight workflow would be that each designer is checking in all their piping and equipment each day. When it would come time to create the system iso’s, they would check out all the lines/equipment with nozzles that are part of that...

Briefcase BIM file should only download Process physical and functional

Currently when using PlantSight, all connection files are downloaded to the BIM file to create it. This causes the BIM file to become very large and can take hours to open Openplant modeler depending on the size of the project. The request would b...

Make Workspace and Workset Optional Like MicroStation

Not everyone wants to be forced to use the Workspace and Workset configuration. We had MicroStation change so this could be turned off for custom configurations and need to have the same for applications like OpenPlant.

Icons for different type of Instruments

While selecting an instrument from the generic option in the piping galleries we get all the instruments listed and then we need to select the required one to place in the model, instead if we have icon for the instruments for example Level switch...
