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...

Match Properties of Pipeline

Please can you bring back a tool similar to the old function that existed in PlantSpace Design where you could select a pipe and by pressing a button it would match the pipeline number, system, service plant area, unit number, size, specifciation ...

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...

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...

Wafer Bolt - Two bolts in the spec with the same nominal diameter and BOLT_LEN but different Description, OPM picks the first spec entry.

OpenPlant Modeler’s working behavior is to pull the nearest bolt entry from spec with a lower BOLT_LEN compared to the calculated length if there’s no available bolt entry from spec with a BOLT_LEN that is either equal or greater than the calculat...

Reprojection of OpenPlant Models to Align to GCS

Other Bentley design tools (OBD) permit the modeling of content at the X=0, Y=0, and orientation in the X axis. When the GCS system is added to the file, and aligned to the modeled content, and the model is published to PlantSight, the components ...

"Save-As" or "Copy/Rename" of a Model connected to PlantSight should change GUID

When using OpenPlant modeler with a project connected to PlantSight, you cannot perform a "Save as" or "Copy and rename". This is because when you do “Save As” or “Copy” on A.DGN to lets say B.DGN, the GUID of the model is not changed. Plantsight ...

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...
