Orthographic graphic module: ReplaceSlopedPipeOnHgr.dll

Rule set graphic module: Replace Sloped Pipe On Hanger

Looks at pipes being collected by the view style and checks to see if they are connected to the hanger being drawn. If the pipe is connected to the hanger, and if the pipe tangent at the connection point is within 45 degrees of the viewing angle, the pipe is replaced with a point (the connection point), and displays in the drawing as normal to the view. All other objects collected by the view style are ignored by the graphic rule. This graphic rule only applies to drawing created using a Drawings by Query component.

To use this module, apply it as a graphic preparation rule to a view style that collects pipes. For example, in the following graphic, the HgrSup - Side view style is shown. It is currently using the graphic preparation rule Copy of Pipe Supports.

You can modify the graphic preparation rule by selecting More in the Graphic Preparation Rule dropdown. The Select Custom Rule dialog box displays. Select the graphic rule to be modified, then click Properties. On the Custom Graphic Rule dialog box, specify a filter to collect the objects to be modified (for example, Pipelines) and select the ReplaceSlopedPipeOnHgr.dll from the Custom Module dropdown field.

When you create a hanger drawing using this view style, any sloped pipe connected to the drawn hanger is replaced in the drawing by a point symbol (the connection point).
