(An overview on the most important icons for project data can be found in the Icons in the Navigators topic.)
In the List view the substance, the state, as well as the placement of the associated piping definition point or piping connection point are displayed by default. Other properties can also be displayed, such as the pipe class or the temperature.
When you select a piping definition point or connection point from the tree or list view, its placement is shown in the graphical preview.
This drop-down list displays all the available filters. A selected filter is automatically activated and is applied to both the tree and the list view. The "- Not activated -" entry deactivates the filter and causes an unfiltered display of the data. Click [...] to open the Filter dialog. Here you can create, edit, delete, copy, export, import, and manage filters.
The popup menu of the Filter drop-down list contains the following entries:
- Deactivate: This popup menu item is available if a filter has been set: Resets the filter setting to the "- Not activated -" entry.
- Activate <filter name>: This popup menu item is available if the filter setting is "- Not activated -": Reactivates the last active filter.
This allows you to toggle rapidly between the unfiltered representation and a representation filtered in accordance with your requirements.
Use this field, via Quick input, to adjust quickly the value of a filter criterion for a defined and activated filter.
Popup menu:
The popup menu provides - depending on the field type (e.g. date, integer, multilingual) - the following menu items that are, depending on the situation, available for influencing the table or editing the values in the fields. You can find an overview of these popup menu items in the section Popup menu items.
In addition, the following dialog-specific popup menu items are available:

Transfers modified piping data (for example the pipe class) from a piping definition (piping definition point, connection point) to the connections and functions of the piping in the P&I diagram. Multiple selection is possible. Note: If a piping definition is linked to a piping planning object, the piping data of this planning object are sent to the piping definition and also to the connections and functions in the P&I diagram during updating. |
