Renaming an Item in the Tree View
Use Rename to change the name of an item in the
tree view. You can rename a flowsheet, a flowsheet total, a flowsheet
view, an instrument, a procedure, or a shift.
- In the CP Console tree view, select an item. The worksheet for
that item appears.
- Click File and select Rename. The Rename <item>
pop-up appears.
- Type a new name.
- Click OK. The new name appears in the tree view.
Delete
Delete allows you to remove a selected item from the
tree view.
Deleting an Item
Use Delete to remove an item from the tree view. You
can delete a flowsheet, a flowsheet total, configuration parameters, and
a shift.
- In the CP Console tree view, select an item. The worksheet for
that item displays.
- Click File and select Delete. The Confirm pop-up
displays.
- Click Yes. The item is removed from the tree view.
Save
Use Save to retain your additions and changes.
Make Copy
Use Make Copy allows you to copy a flowsheet view.
The new view will have a Flowsheets internal ID that is different from
the view that you copied. This is especially useful when you are customizing
views that you have imported.
- In the CP Console tree view, select a view. The worksheet for that
view appears.
- On the File menu, click Make Copy or click the Make
Copy button. The Confirm Copy pop-up appears.
- Click OK. The copied view appears in the tree view.
- The view you just created is listed in the tree view with the name
of “Copy of” prepended to the name of the view you copied.
At this point, it is a good idea to rename the view you just created.
Note: If you rename an imported view, it does
not change the Flowsheets internal ID and the renamed view could still
be overwritten. If you Make a Copy of a view, it is assigned a new Flowsheets
internal ID and will not be overwritten later by an imported view.
Exit
Exit allows you to close CP Console.
