Change North Arrow direction in Caesar generated Isometrics

Change North Arrow direction in Caesar generated Isometrics - 12/27/21 01:38 AM

Whenever I generate isometrics through Caesar-II, the default North arrow direction is in Top Right direction. I need it to be pointing towards Top left side. I changed it in I-Configure through drop-down menu in drawing manager>>Drawing generation, but whenever I generate stress isometrics , it again goes back to Top Right direction. Why is it happening?

You have to define the north in the Special Execution Parameters as -X

North is +Y in this particular project and +Z axis is vertical. And the concern is while extracting isometrics, North always points towards top Right, but I want it pointing towards left so as the orientation of extracted isometrics matches with the piping isometrics generated from 3D software (SP3D).

then you need to rotate your stress model as well

Dear Danb,

If we rotate the model, than Pipe modelling file is does not match with CAESAR modelling file. In pervious version (Excluding Version 11 and 12), we can match and all are inline with fabrication isometric.

Please change the set up which is helpfull to all dwg's are inline with project requirements.
