Would like ability to rotate elongated Instrument Bubbles in the vertical direction to save design space

As a piping designer, I use elongated shaped instrument bubbles and sometimes need to rotate them in the vertical direction to save drafting space and fit them in between pipelines. It would be nice to have a way of changing this to the vertical d...

Unit Classification property in the OPPID KKS workset should support a pick list selection.

It would be nice if the Unit Classification property in the OPPID KKS workset had a database selection dialog when placing an Equipment, so that a user doesn't need to manually enter value. While placing such equipment in OPM, the Unit Classificat...

Ability to increment tags based on a combination of fields

Currently the software only increments tags based on the number field. Would be nice if we could increment values based on a combination of fields. For example, a "Train" Plant breakdown structure property could be included such that when the numb...

PID Property must reflect the change when the value is updated in the external datasource.

Would like to fetch a property from an external database and assign it to a specific component in OpenPlant PID using an external DB Query. If we update the property in the database it should reflect in the OPPID drawing as well.

Would like to control the order that pipeline sizes are listed in the pick list

Currently OpenPlant PID automatically sorts pipeline sizes in ascending order, but it would be nice if it could take the order defined in the Class Editor when selecting the size.

Would like the ability to pass a pipe run property value to a property on a valve class

Story Narrative As a piping designer, I would like the ability to define a custom PROPERTY_X1 on Pipe Run class to pass its values to PROPERTY_X2 on Valve class component, but only as default value and only for first time. The goal is for the targ...

Untagged Parametric Instrument bubble

In general User needs sometimes untagged ( components without unique identifier). Example instrument bubbles with the same behavior than the existing ones but without any sequence number. Example PLC Entry Points. See attached document.
