Specifies a label that excludes parts on the isometric drawing that meet a user-specified condition from the material list. You can use Exclude By Label for Pipe (including Pipe SIO, Cable Tray, and HVAC isometric drawings.

To exclude parts from the material list, you must specify a label that returns the string MTOEXCLUDE. During isometric extraction, Isogen runs the label on each part and adds a MATERIAL-LIST EXCLUDE record to the Piping Component File for any part that meets the condition criteria applied to the label. Isogen excludes any part with a MATERIAL-LIST EXCLUDE record from the material list.

The label definition can base the exclusion of parts on any property or characteristic. For example, if you are working with an as-built project where the piping isometric drawing includes existing pipework and new pipework, it might be preferable to exclude the existing pipework in the materials list on the isometric drawing. In this instance, you can use a label that returns MTOEXCLUDE for any part that has Construction Requirement set to Existing.For more information, see Exclude parts from the material list.
