as needed. These modules include
Construction Module Extends SmartPlant Review capabilities with integrated project
scheduling and collision detection functionality. For project scheduling, ScheduleReview turns
data from your project planning software into a visual display of the construction or demolition
progress. Use ScheduleReview together with the collision detection functionality to plan safe
and timely equipment installation. Review collisions as equipment moves dynamically through
the plant. Hear sounds and see objects highlight as collisions occur. ScheduleReview
supports two popular planning programs: Primavera Project Planner and Microsoft
Project.
Application Programming Interface (API) Module Includes programming libraries that
allow developers to create custom programs that run with SmartPlant Review. The API
module is not a requirement to run custom programs, only to create custom programs for
SmartPlant Review. The online SmartPlant Review Programmer's Guide contains a complete
list of function calls and programming examples.
Visual Effects Module Simulates the placement or removal of equipment to review
physical clearances, performs motion studies, and develops complex motion scenarios. This
module works with the SmartPlant Review Construction module to visually simulate the
construction process. Review the simulation on screen or create animations for output to
video.
Photo-Realism Module Creates high-resolution, anti-aliased images with textures,
patterns, and reflections. The Photo-Realism module helps improve communication with
clients and adds impact to presentations by taking your still images to a new level of quality.

Setting Up Concurrent Licensing

Concurrent licensing is an optional method for using Intergraph software applications that
involves license pooling. License pooling lets you administer the use of concurrent licenses for
applications over a local area network (LAN). Users who want to run copies of applications on
their systems check out license keys from a pool of such keys to run the products.
License pooling lets you register network users by assigning pools, or groups, of licensed serial
numbers without requiring a unique serial number for each network user. A license pool contains
one or more licensed serial number records. The number of licensed serial numbers available for
a given application is determined by the number of licenses purchased for your site. The
application identifies valid licensed serial numbers based on the product index, which is
embedded in the product serial number.
When an application is started in concurrent-use mode, it searches the license pool until it finds a
valid licensed serial number that is not in use or until the pool is exhausted. The application runs
if it gets a valid licensed serial number. If the product does not get a valid licensed serial number,
local site policy determines whether the application runs.
A license is in use when a copy of the application is loaded into the workstations random access
memory (RAM). Refer to your Intergraph software license agreement for more information on
when a license is in use.
To use concurrent licenses for running SmartPlant Review, you must
Install SmartPlant Review on user workstations
Define environment variables on each workstation
Set up a license pool on the server
Defining Environment Variables on Workstations

Intergraph provides eight environment variables to control license pooling. These environment
variables specify details such as where to find the license pool and log files and whether the
product should terminate if no license is found.
Four variables are application-specific, with names based on the index of the application, and
each application-specific variable has a corresponding variable in the generic list. The application
checks the specific environment variable first. If the application-specific variable is not set, the
corresponding generic variable is checked. If neither variable is set, the system does not perform
the action controlled by this environment variable pair.
For application-specific variables, the application product index is embedded in the product serial
number. The last six digits of the serial number indicate the product index. For example, in the
serial number 02303155002531, the product index is 002531. To set an application-specific
variable for this product, replace the nnnnnn of the application-specific variable with 002531 to
form the appropriate variable name, CL002531_ variable, where variable is the environment
variable you wish to set.
NOTE: If you have a mixture of local and concurrent-use products, you must use the
application-specific environment variables to control license pooling. The generic variables control
all Intergraph products, even those installed on a user workstation. If you set the generic
variables, all Intergraph products will run in concurrent-use mode.
Intergraph provides the following environment variables:
5
Variable Function
CLnnnnnn_LICENSEPOOL Determines whether license pooling is in operation. This
variable specifies the location of the license pool file. Its
value may be a file name, a directory and file name, or a
complete path. If this variable is not set, the product looks
for the generic variable CL_LICENSEPOOL.
If neither variable is set, no license pooling or logging is
performed for the application, regardless of the state of the
logging environment. Execution of the application is based
solely on correct branding of the specific application copy. If
either variable is set, the application is controlled by the
license pooling policy specified by the NOLICENSEGRACE
variable.
CLnnnnnn_LICENSELOG Determines whether license logging is in operation for the
application. This variable specifies the location and name of
the log file for licensing information. If this variable is not set,
the product looks for the generic variable
CL_LICENSELOG.
If neither variable is set, no logging is performed for the
application. If either variable is set and license pooling is in
effect, log files are created for the application. If license
pooling (as specified by the LICENSEPOOL variable) is not
in effect, neither of these variables has any effect on license
logging operations.
CLnnnnnn_NOLICENSEGRACE Specifies the licensing policy for the server. If this variable is
not set, the product checks the generic variable
CL_NOLICENSEGRACE. If either of these variables is set
to anything and the product returns without a license
(failure), the product displays an error message and exits.
If neither variable is set and the product returns without a
license, the product runs with warnings that the application
may be in violation of Intergraphs license agreement. The
site administrator controls whether a software product runs if
a license cannot be obtained. You can prohibit all Intergraph
products on a given workstation from running without a
license by setting the CL_NOLICENSEGRACE variable.
You can prohibit specific products from running without a
pooled license by setting the
CLnnnnnn_NOLICENSEGRACE variable.
CLnnnnnn_MACHINEID Identifies the individual workstation or user requesting a
license. This value determines the information written to the
MACHINEID field of the log file when license pooling and
license logging are in effect.
If this variable is not set, the product checks the generic
variable CL_MACHINEID. If neither variable is set, no value
is written to the MACHINEID field of the log file.
The environment variables set your site policy for license pooling. By combining application-
specific and generic environment variables, you can control the operation of license pooling
based on the needs of your site.
6
Note: It is the responsibility of the site administrator to set the policy for the server by setting
the NOLICENSEGRACE environment variable. Under the terms of the Software License
Agreement, the number of application licenses in use at a given time must not exceed the
number of licenses purchased. An application license is in use when a copy of the product is
loaded into a workstations random access memory (RAM). This occurs automatically at product
startup. Refer to your Intergraph software license agreement for more information on when a
product is in use.
Once you have determined your site policy for each application you want to run concurrently, you
must set the environment variables for each Intergraph application that you are running
concurrently on each user workstation that will run the application. For example, if users on
workstations wombat, mct, and shazbot will each run the SmartPlant Review product, you must
set the environment variables for SmartPlant Review on each workstation.
Setting the Environment Variables on Windows NT Systems:
1. On each user workstation, open the Control Panel.
2. Double-click System.
3. Click the Environment tab. The current system environment variables appear in the System
Variables and User Variables tables.
4. In the Variable box, type the variable name, based on your chosen site policy. Refer to the
preceding variables table for a list of environment variables that you can set.
For example, for an application with an index 012345, type the following to set the
LICENSEPOOL variable: cl012345_licensepool
7
5. In the Value box, type the value for the variable.

For example, type the following to set the value to the file \POOLS\LicensePool.txt on a
server serv1: \\serv1\pools\LicensePool.txt
6. Click Set to set the environment variable.
7. Repeat steps 4 through 6 for each environment variable you want to set.
8. Click OK when you have set all environment variables for each application on the user
workstation.
Tip: For more information on setting environment variables, see the Windows NT
documentation.
Setting the Environment Variables on Windows 98 Systems:
1. On each user workstation, open the c:\autoexec.bat file in Notepad and define the system
and user variables.
2. Reboot the workstation.

3. At the MS-DOS prompt, type set to verify that the variables were set correctly.
Tip: For more information on setting environment variables, see the Windows 98
documentation.
Setting Up a License Pool on the Server

To operate Intergraph applications concurrently, you must pool any licenses you want to share.
Pooling licenses involves setting up a license pool file on the server.
The license pool file is an ASCII text file that contains one or more license serial number records.
Intergraph applications check these records when license pooling is in effect, as specified by the
CLnnnnnn_LICENSEPOOL or CL_LICENSEPOOL environment variables set on the workstation
where the software is installed. If either of these variables is set, the application automatically
searches the specified license pool file for a valid license serial number.
The number of license serial numbers available for a given application is determined by the
number of licenses purchased by your site. All license serial numbers used with license pooling
must be placed in a license pool file.
8
1. In Notepad or another text editor, create a license pool file. Each line in the license pool file
must be in the following format:
serial number,license number,"username","company name";"optional comment"
Each line in the license pool file contains the following information:
Value Description
serial number The complete, 14-digit, application product serial
number.
license number An alphanumeric string for Intergraph applications.
For SmartPlant Review, the license number is the
same as the 14-digit serial number. This field must
contain at least one alphanumeric character.
username The user name assigned to this license. This entry
must be surrounded by double quotes.
company name The company name assigned to this license. This
entry must be surrounded by double quotes.
optional comment Optional comments. This entry must be surrounded by
double quotes.
The following graphic represents a sample license pool file:
2. Save the license pool file to a directory on the server.
Note: To use license pooling, the network protocol used to access the files on the central
server must support and be properly configured for file locking. The license pooling system
uses file locking to indicate that a license is in use. When an application obtains a licensed
serial number, it creates a file from the serial number, and attempts to open the file for locked
access. If the file opens, the licensed serial number is in use until the application exits and
releases the file. Nothing is written to the file, and the file is not automatically deleted.
Existing files are relocked if the associated license is used again.
3. On the server, give users read-only access to the license pool file.
4. Give all users who will share licenses read/write access to the directory where the license
pool file is located. Files are created and locked by the application in the directory where the
license pool file is located.
Tip: For more information on setting file and directory permissions, see the Windows NT
documentation.
9
Running Applications Concurrently

When license pooling is in operation, the application performs the following actions at startup:
1. Opens and reads the license pool file, as specified by CL_nnnnnnLICENSEPOOL or
CL_LICENSEPOOL.
2. Searches for a license until a valid license is found or until the license pool file is exhausted.
If a license is found, the application goes on to the next step. Otherwise, the application skips
to step 5 and exits.
3. Creates a file name from the license serial number.
4. Opens the file for locked access.
If the open is successful, permission to execute is granted.
If the open is unsuccessful, the application returns to step 2, repeating steps 2 through 4
until an unused license is found or until the license pool file is exhausted.
Note: If no locking mechanism is available on the system, the application behaves as if no

license was obtained.
5. Updates the optional log file, as specified by the C Lnnnnnn_LICENSELOG or
CL_LICENSELOG environment variables.
6. The lock file is released when the product exits, and a termination entry is written to the log
file.
SmartPlant Review Configuration
Setting Project Options

After you install SmartPlant Review and set up concurrent licensing, if necessary, you are ready
to open the application and set your project options. You must set these options for each project
that you open. Setting project options creates databases to store view settings and other
information for each individual project. For more information about these databases, see the
SmartPlant Review Databases section of this guide.
Caution: DesignReview and SmartPlant Viewer cannot read the SmartPlant Review
databases. Information created using SmartPlant Review will not be available to DesignReview
and SmartPlant Viewer.
After setting options in the Create Project dialog box, you cannot change these options. The only
way to set these options again is to delete the project database files (<project>.MDB and
<project>.MDB2) and open the .DRI, .DGN, DWG, .DXF, or .SAT document again to create a
new project. You can also change the name of the document to start over with a new name and
new databases.
Setting the options that you want at the start of the process is especially important when you
review MicroStation or PDS projects. All of the available options for these types of projects
appear only in the Create Project dialog box.
The options for these types of projects affect the transformation and range of the geometry when
a large plant monument point is present in the .DRI document. These options can also affect the
range of the model, thus impacting fit and other operations in MicroStation and PDS.
1. Click Start > Programs > Intergraph SmartPlant Review to open SmartPlant Review.
2. Click File > Open to open a project.
3. In the Open dialog box, browse to the project that you want to open.
4. In the file list, select the file, and then click Open. The Create Project dialog box appears.
10
5. If you want to change the location of the schema file, click Browse, and browse to the new
schema file.
Note: The schema file is a text file that defines the layout of the project database. By
default, the schema is stored in the installation directory for SmartPlant Review. Although the
schema file is a text file, you should not edit it manually.
6. To change the site name or site ID for the project, type a new name and ID in the Site name
and Site ID boxes.
Note: The site name and site ID provide identification information for the project. This
information is stored in the project database. Defining specific site names and site IDs can
help your administrator identify where the data in the project database comes from.
7. To define other options for the project, click the Options tab.
8. Under DRI parameters for large plant monument, set options for opening PDS documents
in SmartPlant Review.
Note: Large plant monuments from PDS are sent to SmartPlant Review in the .DRI file,
using the old_origin and new_origin entries. This translates the model accordingly in
SmartPlant Review.
To use the new_origin and transform settings in the .DRI file, select Use transform and Use
old and new origin. With these settings, coordinate readouts will be translated and
transformed as specified in the .DRI file from PDS.
To keep the coordinate readouts the same as the MicroStation coordinate readouts, clear the
Use transform and Use old and new origin boxes.
9. Under DGN file elements, set options for opening MicroStation documents and PDS projects
containing MicroStation .DGN files.
If you want to keep the construction text in your .DRI file, regardless of its placement in
relation to the model, select Keep construction text.
Caution: Keeping construction text, especially if the construction text is placed at extreme
points in the outer ranges of the model, may affect view manipulation in SmartPlant Review.
For example, the Fit command may not correctly fit the model in the view.
If you want to display lines and line strings in your model, select Keep lines and line strings.
10. To save the project settings, click OK.
Caution: You cannot change the project settings for a project after you open the project in
SmartPlant Review without deleting the project databases and reopening the project.
Tip: You can also set project options from the command line. Please see the SmartPlant
Review Help for more information.

Note: After you set up your joystick on your computer, you must also turn on the use of the
joystick in SmartPlant Review. See the Using a Joystick section of this guide for more
information.
SmartPlant Review Databases

When you open an existing model document, SmartPlant Review creates a new project
database, with an .MDB extension. If your project contains label data, the software also creates
an additional database, .MDB2, for your project. These databases have the same name as your
project. These databases contain view settings and all other data associated with your project.
Each project has at least one database.
Sharing Databases with Other Users

You can share project and label databases with other users across the network. For other users
to be able to share your project databases, you must give those users read/write permission to
the directory where the databases are stored, read/write permission to the databases themselves,
and read/write permission to any necessary palette and material files.
12
Reviewing Databases
SmartPlant Review uses the Microsoft Jet Access 97 database engine to create your databases.
You can also open and review the project and label databases in Access 2000. However, if you
open a SmartPlant Review database in Access 2000, do not edit the database manually or
convert the database to Access 2000 format. Such a conversion renders the database
unreadable by SmartPlant Review.
Backing Up Databases
Because the .MDB and .MDB2 databases contain all the project data for each project and data is
frequently written to these databases by SmartPlant Review, you should back up these
databases regularly. You can back up your databases by copying and pasting them to a new
directory at regular intervals. This ensures that you do not lose large amounts of data if your
working databases become unreadable.
Warning: If errors occur in your SmartPlant Review databases, your databases may become
unreadable. To avoid this problem, always back up your databases.
The SmartPlant Review Interface

For more information about the SmartPlant Review Interface, see the SmartPlant Review Help.
Using the Mouse

You can use a standard mouse or a Microsoft IntelliMouse to navigate around the model to view
items of interest. Each view mode causes the mouse to move in a different direction. In addition
to moving around in the model, you can use the mouse to display the label data for an object in
the Text view.
In any view, Mouse Drag allows you to move forward and back, pan left and right, pan up and
down, and to rotate. The suggested method for using Mouse Drag is to remain in Auto-Highlight
mode and press a modifier key as you move to change direction modes.
When navigating around in the model, you can stay in Auto-Highlight mode to view object label
data when you are stopped, but press the Ctrl, Alt, and Shift keys to temporarily shift into the
other mouse modes to move. The Ctrl key activates the Forward/Backward, Left/Right mode.
The Shift key activates the Pan mode. The Alt key activates the Rotate mode.
When using mouse drag motion, such as Forward/Back or Left/Right, you can release the
mouse button while the cursor is outside the Main, Plan, or Elevation views. Mouse motion
continues to operate without the need to hold down the mouse button until you click in the Main
view.
Using the Keyboard

You can use keyboard function keys, shortcuts, and keypad keys to activate commands and
move around in the model.
The keys on the numeric keypad on your keyboard are especially useful for navigation in
SmartPlant Review. Use keys 1 - 9 on your keypad to move through the model. Press and hold
these keys to cause continuous motion. For example, use the 4 key to move the view cone to the
left and the 6 key to move the view cone to the right. The 0 key toggles the Continuous Motion
option. The period key (.) repeats the last direction one step. The 5 key toggles the step direction.
To use the numeric keypad for navigation, NumLock must be turned on.

Using a Joystick
In SmartPlant Review, you can use a joystick to navigate in the model. Before you can use a
joystick, you must install the joystick driver, configure the joystick in the Control Panel, and
calibrate the joystick. See the Setting Up an Analog Joystick section of this guide for more
information.
Setting Joystick Options

When you have your joystick working with the operating system, open a SmartPlant Review
project. Start with a very small project to get used to the way the joystick allows you to move in
the model.
1. To turn on the use of the joystick in SmartPlant Review, click Motion > Settings.
2. Click the Joystick tab.
3. Select Allow Joystick to begin using your joystick in SmartPlant Review.
4. Under Movement Type, click type of joystick movement that you want.
The following table describes the two types of joystick movement:
Movement Type Description
Discrete Motion The joystick is in forward, backward, left, right mode when
no buttons are pressed.
Pressing button 1 changes the motion mode to rotate
mode.
Pressing button 2 changes the motion mode to pan mode.
Relative Motion Works much like the mouse drag movement. The joystick
does not engage a motion mode until a button is pressed.
Button 1 engages forward, backward, left, right mode.
Button 2 engages rotate mode.
Button 3 engages pan mode.
5. On the Rates tab, set the movement and rotation settings to small values to ensure the
joystick moves properly with your movement.
Using Toolbars
Toolbars are the rows of buttons or icons displayed on the screen. When you click these buttons
or icons, certain functions of the application are activated. Toolbars can be customized and
usually can be moved around on the screen according to your preference.
Note: Depending on the SmartPlant Review modules you have, some of the commands on the
SmartPlant Review toolbars may not be available to you.
Several default toolbars are especially important in SmartPlant Review:
Standard Toolbar
The SmartPlant Review Standard toolbar is used to open, save, print, cut, copy, or paste a file
and to display SmartPlant Review Help.
15
Common Toolbar
SmartPlant Review commands on the Common toolbar allow you to place, display, and edit tags;
search data fields; create and modify display sets; customize the display; create key frames; and
perform many other operations.
View Toolbar
Use the View toolbar commands to display pane layouts and set motion parameters.
ScheduleReview Toolbar
ScheduleReview toolbar commands allow you to play, pause, stop, snapshot, and move around
a ScheduleReview file. You can only use these commands if you have the Construction module
or the full SmartPlant Review Bundle installed.
Position Control Toolbar

The Position Control toolbar dynamically displays the location of the eye point and center point
and the bearing and elevation settings for movement.
Tip: For information on other SmartPlant Review toolbars and commands, see the SmartPlant

17
Tip: For more information about any SmartPlant Review commands, search for the
command name on the Search tab in the SmartPlant Review Help.
Using Views
The primary SmartPlant Review user interface consists of a set of image displays that appear
within views. Images are displayed in three types of views: the Main view, the Plan view, and the
Elevation view. Two other views, the Text view and Project Manager view, provide additional
access to model information.
You can resize each view. Views are updated according to the action being performed in the
views. There are times when all the views are updated, and other times when some of the views
are not updated. This selective updating provides for better productivity by avoiding unnecessary
image updates.
You can use the Pane Layout commands to display one, three, or all four views.
Using the Project Manager

When you open a project or document in SmartPlant Review, the Project Manager automatically
appears on the left side of the main window. When you open a .DRI document, the Project
Manager displays items that show the structure of the model.
You can easily view and manage the structure and various sections of the model with the tree
view that appears in the Project Manager. This is convenient if you want to easily look at an
overview of the model and manage its parts with the following activities:
View all project files associated with the model
Add, manage, and edit the display sets
Review construction sequences using ScheduleReview
By clicking one of the bars in the Project Manager window, you can view parts of the model,
including the project files, display sets, and ScheduleReview. You can display or hide the Project
Manager while you are in the model. You can double-click the window to undock it and move it
around in the window to a more convenient spot.
SmartPlant Review Features

For more information on any of the features listed here, please see the SmartPlant Review Help.
You can open the SmartPlant Review Help by opening SmartPlant Review and then clicking Help
> SmartPlant Review Help.
Motion and Orientation Control

SmartPlant Review allows you to move laterally and in a circular motion through a model and
view various points of interest using three different types of modes: mouse drag modes,
positioning modes, and directional modes.
Mouse Drag Modes

You can use the mouse to navigate around the model to view items of interest. Each mode
causes the mouse to move in a different direction. In addition to moving around in the model, you
can use the mouse to display the label data for an object in the Text view.
When using mouse drag motion, such as Forward/Back or Left/Right, you can release the
mouse button while the cursor is outside the Main, Plan, or Elevation views. Mouse motion
continues to operate without the need to hold down the mouse button. This mode stays in effect
until you click anywhere in the Main view.
18
Positioning Modes
Positioning modes are used to define how the eye point moves. You can use the Lateral mode to
move freely about the model, or you can use one of the Encircle modes to lock the eye point to a
circular track.
Directional Modes
Directional modes define how you want to navigate around the model. The different modes
provide different types of motion. For example, when in View Dependent Motion mode, the
direction you are looking, eye point to the center point in the View Cone, is the direction you
move. View Dependent Motion Level also moves the eye point in the direction you are looking,
but the elevation of the View Cone does not change.
The mouse drag modes, positioning modes, and the Position Control toolbar all affect how the
directional modes operate.
Measurements
You can measure the distance between two highlighted snap lock points, two surface points, or a
surface point and a snap lock point. SmartPlant Review shows you the two points you selected, a
line between the two points, and the distance between the points.
SmartPlant Review groups measurements together in collections. You can create your own
collections or use the default collection provided. You can display or hide measurement
collections independently in the model. If measurements exist in a collection, you can delete a
portion or all of the measurements with the point range option.
Display Sets
SmartPlant Review includes the ability to form sets of graphic objects, called display sets, that
can be manipulated. You may have up to 250,000 display sets in SmartPlant Review. However,
your hardware capability may limit your number of display sets further.
A display set must contain one or more graphic objects or at least one or more other display sets.
Display sets can contain their own graphic objects or display sets to any level of nesting you
require. However, a display set cannot contain itself or any other display set that contains itself (to
prevent recursive or looping organization structures).
Display set ID numbers determine the order of precedence when you assign conflicting display
characteristics to the same elements. The lower the display set number, the higher the
precedence. This means that an element that is a member of two different display sets will
appear with the characteristics of the lower numbered display set, assuming both sets have
different display characteristics turned on.
In SmartPlant Review, you can also automatically define display sets by selecting a type of label
data. SmartPlant Review automatically creates these display sets for you based on the criteria
you select.
Tags
Tags provide a means of communication between the people who design a plant and the people
who construct a plant. Tags can provide information such as the name of a piece of equipment,
its location, its type or classification, or general comments made during a walk-through of the
design. Essentially, tags are labels that provide additional information about items in a plant.
In SmartPlant Review, you can place tags with leader lines or without leader lines, edit tags, and
delete tags. When you create a new tag, it is assigned the next available tag number, and the tag
becomes the active tag. The software saves the corresponding view, including levels and clipping
planes, when you place a new tag. Then, when you display the tag, the corresponding view also
displays.
19
You can search for a tag by entering text that appears in the tag label. You can directly go to a
tag by entering a tag number. You can step through the tag list to view each tag. The current tag
is the active tag. You can also display all tags, only the active tag, or no tags. You can also
display action comments, which are tags that were previously placed in a plant design product.
Annotations
In SmartPlant Review, you can attach data and textual annotations to your module.
You can use the text annotation feature to place, edit, and move textual information, such as
equipment numbers, descriptions, and other alphanumeric strings. You can also specify the
position and color of the annotations, as well as a leader line.
You can also attach external datasuch as spreadsheets, text files, or raster imagesto your
model using data annotations. Simply drag and drop a file icon onto the model, and double-click
the icon to display the data.
Note: Text annotations are not saved when you exit SmartPlant Review.
Collision Detection
Collision detection allows you to review collisions as equipment moves dynamically through the
plant. You can also hear sounds and see objects highlight as collisions occur.
Two modes of collision detection are supported in SmartPlant Review: static and dynamic. Static
collision detection is performed by comparing each object in a specified model range to all other
objects in the specified range to determine if a touch or overlap condition occurs. Static collision
detection could help find problems such as pipes that are too close together or intersecting.
Dynamic collision detection is performed when you define an object or group of objects to set in
motion through the plant. Dynamic collision detection is useful when moving equipment, such as
a construction crane, through a plant to find a safe pathway for the move.
Note: To use the collision detection functionality, you must install the Construction module or
the full SmartPlant Review Bundle.
ScheduleReview
ScheduleReview significantly extends the review functions of SmartPlant Review.
ScheduleReview uses abstract data from your project planning software, such as Microsoft
Project 98 or Primavera, to display the sequence of construction. You can also reverse the action,
so that the ScheduleReview displays the deconstruction sequence.
ScheduleReview allows you to visualize the construction cycle in single steps (by day, week, or
month) or continuously. You can also move along a predefined path in the model as you
continuously step through time.
For example, you can ScheduleReview to help analyze the construction process to avoid
problems, show the construction of specific units in the context of the overall project schedule,
display the project as it should appear on a certain day, or fly through the model while displaying
the construction sequence. ScheduleReview is ideal for presenting a fly through to project staff,
senior management, and clients.
Note: To use ScheduleReview, you must install the Construction module or the full SmartPlant
Review Bundle.
20
Material Editor
The Material Editor allows you to assign material properties to model elements and set various
rendering parameters. By assigning material properties to model elements, you can create photo-
realistic renderings with color and surface characteristics that match the real-world materials of
the finished product.
The Material Editor allows you to assign material definitions, such as wood, metal, glass, stone,
and plastic, to your 3D model. As you make material assignments, the Material Editor creates a
material table file for your 3D model. The material table contains all the information about the
colors, surface characteristics, patterns, and bump maps assigned to model elements. The
material table file is given the model filename with a .MAT extension. For example, the model file
XYZ.DGN will have a material table file named XYZ.MAT.
The Material Editor is also used to set various image rendering parameters. These parameters
are also saved in the material table.
Tip: For a detailed description of the material table file format, see the SmartPlant Review
Programmers Guide. If you installed the full SmartPlant Review Bundle or the API module, you
can find the SmartPlant Review Programmers Guide (PRM.CHM) in the SmartPlant Review\API
directory.
Note: To use the Material Editor, you must install the Photo-Realism module or the full
SmartPlant Review Bundle.
