G.10.01 Company Symbols
This screen allows you to store graphic symbols for companies in the database.

Company Symbol

In this table all symbols (images) for companies are stored. You can import images from a file
system. The following table shows the graphics file formats currently supported. The table
indicates the format type (bitmap or vector drawing), and shows whether the format can be used
for image items.

Format Type Image

BMP Image Read/write


JFIF Image Read/write
TIFF Image Read/write
PCX Image Read only
PICT Image Read only

G-2 Graphics
SmartPlant Materials Graphics

Notes to use images:

An image stored in the database cannot exceed 2 giga bytes. Images that are inserted in the
database by way of an COMMIT are automatically compressed using ORACLE image
compression. Compression rations vary among file formats and individual files, but are usually on
the order of 3:1 for color images and 10:1 or better for black and white images.

Symbol Code
Name (code) for this company symbol.

Short Desc
The language dependent short description for this company symbol.

Description
The language dependent description for the company symbol.

Bitmap Format
Format types for the bitmap image which can be stored in the database are explained above.

Directory
Contains the name of the physical directory on the OS. This
information together with the information from the filename are the
place where the bitmap is located.

File Name
Contains the name of the physical file on the operating system (exclude the path, but include the
postfix like e.g. BMP).

Browse / Upload
If you are not working in a web environment the label of this button is 'Browse'. When pressing this
button a file open dialog will be shown. After you have selected a file the directory and the file name
will be taken over into the screen.

In a web environment the label of the button is 'Upload'. If you press this button another browser
window will be opened with a form that allows you to upload a file on your web server.

Make sure the DBA setting in A.60.04 called SERVLET_PATH is set.


The value can look like this:
Your_web_server/servlets

The name of your web server is followed by the string /servlets. Do not append a trailing slash.
When the user picked up the file from his file system he can press the submit button to send the
file to the server. The destination path on the application server, where the file is stored has to be
maintained in the DBA setting in A.60.04 called GRAPHIC_UPLOAD_DEST. This is a valid format

G-3 Graphics

for the value (with trailing backslash):


c:\mar_5\image_uploads\

When the upload is finished, the user can close the additional browser window. The directory and
file name of the uploaded file are automatically stored in the appropriate fields of the screen. The
file name is concatenated by the string 'CS' and the ID of the actual graphic symbol.

Load
When pressing this button the selected symbol is loaded from the operating system using the
information provided in the fields 'Directory' and 'File Name'.

If you are working in a web environment the file must be located on the web server. Please use
button 'Upload' to transfer a file to the web server in case of need.

Save on OS
In a non-web environment the file open dialog is started allowing you to store the symbol in a file on
the operating system.

When pressing this button in a web environment the file is stored on the application server: Please
make sure that DBA setting GRAPHIC_DOWNLOAD_DEST has a valid value in screen A.60.04
before pressing this button. The value can look like this:
c:\spmat\image_downloads\
The path can be chosen deliberately, but it must exist on the application server. Append a trailing
backslash here.
The information provided in the field 'Directory' is not taken into account and will not be changed.
This allows you to work with this screen both in a web and in a non-web environment. Only the
name of the file will be taken over.

In a first step the file will be saved on the web server. In a second step you will be asked if,
additionally, you wish to download the file onto one of your local drives. If you decide for a
download you need to specify a value for DBA setting GRAPHIC_DOWNLOAD_URL in module
A.60.04. A valid entry for the setting is:
Your_web_server/spmat_images

The name of your web server is followed by a virtual directory name. Do not append a trailing
slash. Note, that you have to define an alias in the web server configuration. In the configuration file
on the application server there should be a line looking like the following:
Alias /spmat_images/ "c:\spmat\image_downloads/"

The right hand entry must match the GRAPHIC_DOWNLOAD_DEST except that the backslash is
replaced by a slash. The left hand entry must match the GRAPHIC_DOWNLOAD_URL, but the
server name is omitted and a trailing slash is added.

Zoom Small
Press this button to zoom out the symbol. This will only affect the display, not the size of the image
in the database.

Zoom Big
