Places supplemental Isogen blocks in the drawing. There are several types of block available for export to Isogen:

  • Isogen_Arrow

  • Isogen_Wall

  • Isogen_Floor

  • Isogen_Instrument

  • Isogen_Break In

  • Insulation

  • Location Point

Arrow, wall, and floor blocks must be inserted along the center line of a pipe component.

Instrument blocks must have the instrument line connected to the end of an olet component, TAP component, or a weld gap component.

Break in (Tie in) points must be connected to the end point of a component.

You must insert LOCATION-POINT on a component. Otherwise, Isogen does not place it in the isometric drawing. You can insert LOCATION-POINT at any location.

Supplemental blocks do not have line numbers. Isogen processes all supplemental blocks in a drawing at the same time.

To add other blocks to this menu, see Adding preview graphics in Graphics / Pipe Ends. The block name must contain Isogen_Arrow, Isogen_Instrument, Isogen_Wall, Isogen_Floor, or Isogen_BreakIn for export to Isogen. For example, to add another instrument type, you could name the block Isogen_Instrument_4, and add it to the menu.

If you are placing a flow arrow on a sloped line, align the UCS to the slope before inserting the arrow.
