Settings Manager:
-Enable/Disable which components you want to be registered on and off. Mainly useful for debugging and turning on and off Work In Progress components.
Dockable Automatic Pipe End Prep Updater:
-Dynamically adds all possible fitting flanges and labels each end.
*Note: currently does not work with connections to families where the connector is located within a sub element.
*Note: as of 04/05/24, the way the direction a bell or flange is facing changed, from checking the handle orientation which might not line up if the connection has deflection ( a slight angle ), to checking if the connection is a primary connector or not. The primary connector should always be the "Bell" end and the secondary connector should always be the "Spigot" end.
-> Setting Up Pipe End Prep Updater
-> Simple Example
Select Pipeline
-Ending at a change in direction ( i.e. at an bend of any angle, a tee/wye, a cross, etc. )
-Ending at a Reducer or Transition piece
-Or just at an open connection where a pipe ends
Measure the total length of selected pipe
Dimension Pipe Line Tool
-Allows for Piping Elements ( Pipes, Pipe Fittings, and Pipe Accessories ) within a "Pipeline" ( as defined above ) to be dimensions together ( without gaskets / flanges / unions ) in one click. Note: Pipe Accessories and Pipe Fittings both require Reference Lines with the subcategory of "Center line" or "zLines" from the center of each Connector to the center of the element to function correctly.
Smart Flip
Issue: Not being able to flip a flange without breaking connections and occasionally moving elements.
Fix: Smart Flip which disconnects the elements, flips the flange, then reconnects the elements in one click
( REPLACED WITH DIMENSION TEXT WINDOW ) Question Mark Dimension Tool:
Issue: To replace a single dimensions text with a question mark takes you double clicking the dimension, clicking the option to replace the text, then typing in your question mark, and pressing "Apply". -> takes about 5 actions, which is fine unless you need to do multiple.
Fix: takes only one click to replace each dimension with a whatever text you would like.
Dockable Element Parameter Assistant:
-Opening Dockable Pane
-Selecting elements to manager
-Can add whatever parameters the elements contains and set them on the fly or group or sort by these parameters.
-Easier to find each element parameter instance you would like to set before you set each one
-Can also set the User's current selection by highlighting specific elements
Dimension Text Window
-Functions as the standard Dimension Window except you can apply your changes to multiple Dimensions and DimensionSegments. Due to the inaccessibility of some dimension parameters, the only features not currently functioning is swapping between the "Use Actual Value", the "Replace With Text", and "Show Label in View" as well as the Segment Dimension Leader Visibility Dropdown. To use the "Replace With Text" option, simply click that option and fill in the textfield with the desired text. To revert back to the actual value, simply delete all of the text within the "Replace With Text" textfield.
