Add a symbol to a library

1

Navigate to Diagram parsing

Navigate to Data management > Contextualize > Diagram parsing.
2

Select or create a library

Select Manage libraries and then select the library to which you want to add the symbol. To create a symbol library:
  • To copy a template, select a template and then select > Duplicate template.
  • Select + to create a new library.
3

Add geometry to symbol

To add a geometry to an existing symbol, select the symbol and Add as geometry.
For pipe detection, a line is identified as a pipe only if it has an endpoint touching at least one detected symbol. Adding more geometries of piping symbols does not affect the detection process. When you review the parsed output, adding lines as pipes will create additional detected pipes from the selected lines.
When you delete a symbol from the library page, the symbol is deleted from every file using it. When you delete a geometry from the library page, geometries with this shape won’t be identified as symbols when parsing diagrams in the future.
