Specifying Items in HydraLIST

Although you can gather Miscellaneous items in HydraLIST for your 3D Risers, we recommend that you use the Parts Tree for this.

However, specifying fabricated pipes for 3D Risers must be done with HydraLIST. You can open the Build 3D Risers toolbar from the Listing toolbar.

Start HydraLIST by selecting Launch HydraLIST from the Build 3D Risers toolbar.

You must save your drawing prior to selecting this command.

A HydraLIST file will be created with the same name as your drawing but with the HLF extension. The file will be in the same folder as your drawing file.

Pick the Mains tab and create a new Section I.D.
