Background


In Piping Isometrics, it is certain that a pipeline containing multiple components outputs a complex drawing, thus not able to read labels and tags properly. To control this type of case, drawings get split into multiple sheets to facilitate a good readable drawing. Splitting of sheets can be considered based on various criteria, Attributes, component counts, etc.
User requirement is to add the sheet number as per the (split sheet number / Total number of sheet). Currently, it is showing sheet numbers in the isometric drawing as shown below



Steps to Accomplish
         

  1. Navigate window files
  2. Open the txtfile in notepad++. Use default path as mention below
    C:\ProgramData\Bentley\OpenPlant CONNECT Edition\Configuration\Workspaces\OpenPlantExample\WorkSets\Imperial\Standards\OpenPlant\Isometrics\styles\IFC\config



  3. . Uncomment the name property and add 10,TEST property the txt file as shown below



  4. Comment 18 & 19 for SHEETNONO_SHEETS using #. Un-comment this PRESPLIT_SHEETNO & PRESPLIT_NO_SHEETS as shown in below image.

    Change

            18,SHEETNO
            19,NO_SHEETS

             into:

            #18,SHEETNO
            #19,NO_SHEETS


             change

             #18,PRESPLIT_SHEETNO
             #19,PRESPLIT_NO_SHEETS

             into:

             18,PRESPLIT_SHEETNO
            19,PRESPLIT_NO_SHEETS

             

  1. Open text files in notepad++. Refer below image



  2. In textnodes.txt, add below changes

    $TEST
    TEST=$(LINENUMBER) / $ (PRESPLIT_SHEETNO)  /  $(PRESPLIT_NO_SHEETS)

  3. Save all the changes. Launch Open modeler and regenerate the isometric.

  4. Verify the results in the isometric sheet.
