[?]: Eplan Plot Frame Question

Post by StephanieH »

I am working in eplan P8.
Here is my problem - when I restored the project, ladder numbers appeared on the plot frames.
I tried to open the plot frame to make changes to it, but the plot frame used in my project doesn't appear in the list.
I tried to make a new one from scratch but have been unable to duplicate some of the fields and images used in the original.
Once upon a time I think I remember being able to export a plot frame, change it, and add it to the project but I can not figure out or remember how to do it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!
Steph

Hi,
Open Your project. Then go to Option -> Settings... In the left side of Settings window select User -> Management -> Directories. In the right side You have item named Plot Frames:. Here You choose directory where You store and call Plot Frames in Your projects. You can use Eplan default directory or choose Your own.

Actually what you have to do is just synchrinice the project and the master data. Do it under the utilities menu.
I wolked as EPLAN support engineer for 2 years and I do not thinks that there is somehting I do not know about it :)
If you need more help, I will post a video solution.

I accidentally deleted the plotframe I had created so now EPLAN is using that plotframe in old projects only, and I can't use it in any new project how can I solve that so that I could be able to use that plotframe in other projects?

If you have the old project, open it and when it asks you about master data, select USER DEFINED. In the given list find your plot frame and move it from project to global master data. Then you can find it in your plot frame directory.
