● Changing the nominal diameter of the pipe parts.
The table is structured as follows:
● Left column: The legend descriptions of the pipe parts
● The remaining header columns: The current nominal diameter range of the pipe spec
Each row describes the nominal diameter range of a pipe part:
● White cell with check mark: The nominal diameter is currently available.
● White cell without check mark: The nominal diameter is always available.
● Gray cell: This nominal diameter cannot be within the nominal diameter range.
Context menus
The context menu for the upper table contains the following entries:
● A list of all pipe parts which are available as preselected components for the current nominal
diameter

8.5.2 Preselected components
Definition
Preselected components are those pipe parts returned by COMOS as standard values when
the pipe part type is addressed.
Example: A user is working on an isometric drawing and places a pipe part using the symbol
bar of the isometric drawing. The user selects a pipe part type and places the pipe part that is
set as preselected component for the pipe part type and the selected nominal diameter.
