PDMS TIPS & TRICKS

http://piping-info.blogspot.com
1. If you want to invert the HEAD and Tail of a particular branch then select the
branch and modify �> Hierarchy �> Reverse
2. Normally in PDMS the precision set to 0 decimals. If you want to increase

the Decimal points enter the following in the command prompt.
PREC 4 DP ( where 4 is the no. of decimal points)
3. If you want to change only few values of a desparam you can use the
following command
DESP n5 200 n8 500
This will change only the 5th and 8th parameter of a desparam
4. If you are working in any modules (Equipment, Structures) and you want to
use piping components creation form then use the following command in the PDMS
command prompt.
Show _CDCOMP
5. To Zoom in of the CE, type Auto CE.
6. Put some items in the graphic view and use the following command
show !!gphmotion
(Auto rotation..Auto Zoom, Auto Whoble effects)
7. Distance Measuring command

CONST DIST IDP@ TO IDP@
CONST DIST P0 TO P0 OF ID@
CONST DIST PA TO PA OF NEX
8. Want help on your syntax (PDMS Commands) then type
