Version 2.0.0.3

New Features:

Draw Parts to Profile View: Offers a faster workflow for projecting your Pipe Network parts to a Profile View. Run the command and use on of the selection methods of Network, Multiple or Path options to select parts, then select the desired profile view for drawing the parts on. When done, the parts will be now drawn in the profile view.

Merge Networks: Offers the ability to merge multiple networks at once into a destination network, unlike Civil 3D's Merge Networks which only allows for one at a time. Run the command, select the Destination network either by a part or dialog, then select multiple networks thereafter via dialog to merge. Merged networks are deleted when complete.

Split/Merge Parts: Offers the ability to select parts via Multiple or Path options and merge them into a Destination network. This command saves the step of having to split the network and then merge networks. Simply choose the destination network and the parts you'd like to split/move to the destination network. If the network ends up with no parts left, it's deleted. Command also runs Civil 3D's Reconnect Network command to ensure all networks are connected after the merger.

Label Profile View Parts: Offers the ability to create multiple structure and pipe labels at once on a selection set of Profile View Labels. For Structure Labels, it also offers to automatically set the Dimension Anchor Option and Dimension Anchor Value as the labels are created. Saving label settings and recalling label settings is also available to make this tool highly customizable and time saving.

Slopes Catalog: This new palette allows for defining multiple catalogs of pipe slopes to be utilized by commands within Pipe Network Productivity Tools when applying slopes to pipes. Access the Slopes Catalog by launching Pipe Slope Single / Multiple Extended Settings Manager. There are a couple of pre-built catalogs available and you have full customization capabilities of the catalogs or the ability to create your own custom ones. Then, on the Settings dialog, Pipe Slope Single / Multiple tab, check the box Apply Standard Slopes from Slope Catalog (default setting is off). Now you're set to utilize the tools with defined pipe slopes from your currently selected Slopes Catalog.

When using Pipe Slope Single, Pipe Slope Multiple, Set Wye Connections or Update Wye Connections, catalog slopes will be used for pipe sizes found in the catalog. However, if you are using Assigned Pipe Slopes functionality and assigning specific slopes to pipes, the assigned slopes will be used over the catalog slopes. The hierarchy of applied slopes is below, with the top most being used if all 3 slopes are found to be connected to the a specific pipe:

1. Assigned Slopes
2. Slopes Catalog
3. Command line entered slopes

Ribbon Enhancements:

Profile View Panel added with button for Draw Parts to Profile View.

Network Quantities Label renamed to Quantities Label as the tool has been revised to allow for Network, Multiple, and Path selection modes for gathering quantities.

Added Networks Panel for new Merge Networks and Merge Parts buttons.

Added Label Profile View Parts button on the labeling panel.

Enhancements:

Revising the terminology of "Wyes" to "Services" through the entire application. The terminology of "Wyes" refers to Sanitary connections only. However, the tools can be used for Sanitary, Storm and pressure network services such as water main or gas (if you design pressure networks with Pipe Networks vs Pressure Pipe Networks).

Slope Across Pipes Single / Multiple: Added functionality to use Catalog slopes if a matching pipe size is found in the current catalog and the Apply Standard Slopes from Slope Catalog setting is turned on.

Set Service Connections: Added functionality to use Catalog slopes if a matching pipe size is found in the current catalog and the Apply Standard Slopes from Slope Catalog setting is turned on.

Update Service Connections: Added functionality to use Catalog slopes if a matching pipe size is found in the current catalog and the Apply Standard Slopes from Slope Catalog setting is turned on.

Bug Fixes:

Create Profile from Pipes: Fixed an issue where in some situations the command would fatal error on creation of the profile.

Label Pipe Elevation: On non-circular pipes, when labeling the invert or crown, tool is calculating using the pipe width instead of height. Fixed the issue so the invert/crown are reported correctly for non-circular pipes.

Wye Connection Manager: Fixed an issue where an error message stating "eDuplicateRecordName" would appear in some situations.

Slope Across Pipes Multiple (Elevation Mode): In situations where a selected run of pipe contained multiple pipe sizes, fixed an issue where Elevation mode was calculating the pipe slope incorrectly and not setting the correct value on end pipe.

Slope Across Pipes Multiple (both Slope and Elevation Modes): When prompted for start or end elevations, choosing Pipe as a keyword now allows for selecting a Profile View Part and chooses which end of the part's elevation to use based on your cursor location related to the current Profile View location.

Slope Across Pipes Single (Elevation Mode): Fixed an issue when cancelling the command after an elevation was typed in, it would set the pipe elevation to 0. Command now cancels as expected.

Raise / Lower Pipes: Fixed an issue when command cancelled, pipes would be lowered by a factor. Command now cancels as expected.

Set Service Connections / Update Service Connections / Service Connections Manager: When setting 'Ignore' on Service pipe slope resulted in a conversion error. This has been resolved. Working in all of the commands mentioned.

Settings - Pipe Label: Resolved an issue where the Crown Elevation abbreviation setting value was applying to the Crown Wall Elevation Abbreviation value as well resulting in incorrect setting being saved.

Network Quantities Label: In the previous release, the tool had the ability to sum up all Networks in a file. When reworking the tools for new features, this was inadvertently removed. It is now added back in. When selecting ALL keyword, the tool will provide quantities for each network individually and provide a total summary for all networks.

Swap Multiple Parts: Added an additional check for each Pipe / Structure part time to verify parts are of the proper family due to some custom Part Catalogs using different family names but having the same part names in multiple families. For example, see the custom part catalog shown below regarding pipe sizes. Size names are the same but families are different.

Match Network Parts: Added an additional check for each Pipe / Structure part time to verify parts are of the proper family due to some custom Part Catalogs using different family names but having the same part names in multiple families. For example, see the custom part catalog shown below regarding pipe sizes. Size names are the same but families are different.

Split Pipe with Structure: Added an additional check for each Pipe / Structure part time to verify parts are of the proper family due to some custom Part Catalogs using different family names but having the same part names in multiple families. For example, see the custom part catalog shown below regarding pipe sizes. Size names are the same but families are different.
