    Changing the size of valves and other objects in Plant Space?

    How do I go about changing the dimensions of the valves and other objects in my process flow diagrams in Plant Space? Thanks in advance.

    Plant Space Schematics - placing valves, etc.

    How do you go about placing elements such as valves, etc. in a process flow diagram using Plant Space Schematics? I can insert piping, etc. alright but I can't seem to insert valves or other elements in the diagram on matter what I do.

    ACCUDRAW, units and scaling - huh????

    I've been trying to use ACCUDRAW to draw up schematics for an apparatus I've designed but the darn thing won't cooperate. First of all - no matter what units I choose in Coordinate Readout, the AccuDraw window always displays the coordinates in some crazy units (whose identity, etc. I'm...
