For those who have already implemented the original article I have marked the sections that require a change as REVISED.īecause Plant 3D does not have a method for implementing a change like this to every project these revisions will need to be made in each existing project that you have implemented the original article on. Fortunately, I was able to come up with a different method that still accomplished this without sacrificing the validation process, which is why I am updating this article today. I used the format to simplify the tags in both the Ortho’s and the Isometric’s and had a one stop setup on the plant side in case users ever needed to change the tag format for a project in the future. Out of the box, there is not a tag format for the Pipe Run Components and evidently the validation will not find pipe in the P&ID if you add a format. It was the Pipe Line Number Tag Format setup in the Pipe Run Component. After throwing every dart I could think of I have finally figured out what was causing the error. For each pipe it stated something similar to “This Pipe with tag 8”-CS150-NA-1001 (size 8” and spec CS150) was not found on any pipe line NA-1001 in any of the P&ID drawings in this project.” My only answer was to ignore the issue until now. ![]() The validation error would be under the heading “Unmatched model inline fittings” and would show every piece of pipe in the 3D model. ![]() This article was originally released in the fall of 2013 however, I have received several emails since then about an issue users were having when validating their projects after implementing the changes in the article.
