Importing and sharing files
On the far right-hand side of the main toolbar of the "Installation" tab, either within the “Water Systems” tab or within the "Sanitary Systems" tab, are the tools for importing and sharing files with water supply or water evacuation system information:
These features make it possible for several users to work on different files simultaneously. When the data entry is finished, the information in the files can be dumped and collected in a single file using these options.
Import
Imports a PLW file with the information of the water supply system (in the "Water Systems" tab) or a PL file with the information of the water evacuation system (in the ‘Sanitary Systems’ tab).
When using this option, the "Import (Water Systems)" or “Import (Sanitary Systems)” window opens, with the following options:
- Select file
Selects a file from the extensions mentioned above and specifies its path. - Delete the information from the existing file (optional)
Activates or deactivates the elimination of the information of the file on which the import is carried out, including the geometry of the existing elements in the system and the options defined in the configuration of the job.
After accepting, the program loads the geometry of the elements in the system saved in the imported file at the same coordinates as in the original file.
Share
Generates a PLW file with the information of the water supply system (in the "Water Systems" tab) or a PL file with the information of the water evacuation system (in the "Sanitary Systems" tab) and saves it in the specified path.
When using this option, the "Share (Water Systems)" or "Share (Sanitary Systems)" window opens, with the following option:
- Select directory
Selects the directory where the file will be saved.
After clicking "Accept", the program generates a file in the specified directory with the same name as the CYPEPLUMBING job and with one of the previously mentioned extensions.
