Replace it with "Controls.Row_1+TxtHeight*-0.75" where Controls.Row_1 specify where the line is currently at. By default it will probably say "TxtHeight*0.5". Next you want to lock the text so that the text will move left and right at a distance when you reposition the line horizontally. Change it to "Height*0.12" where i found to be as close to the original position as possible.ħ. Enter the Shape Sheet of that stencil you wish to edit, and locate the section called "Text Transform"Ħ.
Next you want to LOCK the text to be as low as possible, and to the left of the vertical line at a fixed distance.ĥ. Firstly, I would write something in the "Username" textbox so that you can see where the text is being positioned.Ĥ. Select the default I/O point from your stencil and drag it onto the Visio Page.ģ. You will first need to be in Developer Mode.Ģ. Had to patiently go through the Shape Sheet, but have now set it up to be nearly identical to how it behaved in previous versions.ġ. Taco also has some other very interesting tools for the residential side that can be adapted for light commercial.Finally figured it out. Taco, the pump manufacturer, has a similar tool (by the same developer I believe) available. They used to have a water-side only tool but they have discontinued it. It is an excellent tool for creating diagrams as well as doing some calculations on the system. I found it easier but our CAD operators would beg to differ).
The purpose of the drawings or sketches are for pricing assistance and not a detailed engineering drawing.Ī CAD tool might also be a reasonable tool (at a former company we had a Visio-like AutoCAD product to do control drawings that I adapted to do some basic HVAC schematics but I came back to Visio. I also tend to use the ductwork layout stencil to create exhaust layouts. Nothing too ?intelligent? but with connection points and ability to quickly create schematic. It is an excellent tool for this although most of the stock templates are not to my liking so I have made my own shapes and saved those on a stencil for reuse.
I have been using Visio for a long, long time for HVAC diagrams and schematics especially when sketching out additions to existing systems etc.
