Layout issues in flowcharts
Thread Content
Hello everyone, I’m a beginner in using CAD. I mainly use it to create process flow diagrams with control points. What are the steps involved in planning an overall layout? I always feel that the drawings I create lack harmony. I hope experts can share some experience and give me some advice. Thank you
Draw a few more pieces and you’ll gain experience. Also, look at more existing images, compare them, and identify the differences. By the way, if I use CAD solely to draw PID diagrams, are many of the components drawn in advance? I used PIDCAD for this purpose in the past.
In fact, using CAD for drawing is like a painter painting on paper. Only by being confident can one apply proper organization. Before drawing each picture, one must have a clear plan in mind. Thinking more carefully will help to create better diagrams. Additionally, looking at finished product images is also a quick way to get started.
Divide the main equipment that needs to be installed into several areas, leaving as much space as possible between them. Then connect the various pipelines. Once the layer settings are done, connecting the pipelines is quick. Finally, add valves and control points (copying and pasting is also fast). As for achieving an attractive appearance, it depends on one’s own experience
