Setting Obstruction and Insulation Representation

Catalogues and Specifications Reference Manual

Component Design and Representation in PARAGON : Reference Section : Setting Obstruction and Insulation Representation


Keywords:	REPRESENTATION OBSTRUCTION INSULATION
Description:	Component Obstructions are often given LEVELS or TUBE and CENTRELINE settings which render them invisible. Setting the Representation of OBST On forces the system to override normal LEVEL and TUBE settings and show all of the primitives, regardless of the other settings. Setting the Representation of INSU On or Off determines whether or not insulation is shown on primitives. These have the effect of considering all primitives which have an obstruction level greater than zero and all primitives which are affected by insulation parameters. As with changes to LEVEL representation, the graphics display is not updated instantly. Use the RECR UPDATE command to make any changes visible.

Examples:

REPR OBST ON INSU OFF

REPR INSU ON

REPR PROF OBST ON PROF INSU OFF
