Add ability to select and add multiple runs to Pipelines using the Add Run tool

Currently the Add Run to Pipeline tool only allows one pipe run at the time to be selected and added to a Pipeline. This request is to add the functionality so that multiple Pipe Runs can be selected and then added to a specific Pipeline. This mos...

Would like ability to apply Display Rules to piping components in OPPID.

Would like to establish display rules to control the color of piping components based on a property value so that if it were set to one value the component could be shown in red for example. This makes it possible for highlight relevant components...

It would be nice if crossing a pipeline over itself would create a jumper.

I would like the software to show a jumper when I cross a pipeline over the top of itself like it does when you have two different pipelines so that it's clear that there is not an actual joint of the pipes at that point. See attached image.

Enable word wrap for component annotation

When a long description is needed to annotate a component such as a valve I have to manually input a '\n' to force some of the text to a second line. It would be nice if there was a way to specify a boundary or character length after which the sof...

Need to connect Valves directly to a nozzle without placing a pipeline

See attached picture. In general it could happen that a nozzle gets a Valve connected with a plug or a blind flange at the end. In the moment it is not possible to place the valve directly at a nozzle without drawing a pipeline.

Property Category to be Defined on the Property

Currently, when adding a property or editing an existing property, the category in which the property is to reside, is defined in a separate Custom Attribute. If a user manually adds this custom attribute, it is possible to type in an incorrect na...

Flag PID_DOCUMENT as modified, if data on the drawing is changes.

If user deletes a tag in OPDM that already exists on a drawing. It would be nice if the PID drawing was flagged as requires syncronizaion or not up to date and when user opens the drawing in OPPID, it would show that drawing is not up to date and ...
