gsphelp  Component pop-up menu

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

By right-clicking on a component, a pop-up menu appears with the following commands (depending on the model and the component, some options may be disabled):

 

 GSPComp_AltClickComponent

 

 

All components have the ability to use:

Edit                
Opens the Component Editing (data entry) form (if applicable). This action can also be performed by double-clicking the component after it has been selected.

Rotate        
Rotates the component icon 90° clockwise.

Delete        
Deletes the component from the model form.

Copy
Copy the component.

 

Control component that have the ability to be (de)activated have an extra menu option:

Active
The Active option toggles the active state of the control components without the need to open the component data window.

 

The following 2 items are disabled for standard gas path components, and enabled for control components.  The calculation (and numbering; number in the top right corner of the component icon) order of control component icons is influenced by the following options. This can be very useful for advanced users to use dependent parameters in certain components (e.g. to evaluate an expression in a component that uses calculated parameters from an other component, the component number of the component evaluating the expression needs to be higher than the component calculating the needed parameters).

Move to start of calc order

Set the component number to the first control component number (usually 1)

Move to end of calc order

Set the component number to the last control component number (usually first number before first inlet number)

 

The following items are manipulating data in conjunction with the xml data in the tree:

Copy component to parent
This will copy all the input data fields to the parent model component. This is very useful for updating model configurations using a child design case for fine tuning your models's design/reference point.

Revert Component to Parent

Revert all component data to the data of this component in the parent configuration or case (i.e. revert all data to inherited). This is convenient to for example to undo changes for the component only.

Move component to child configs/cases

Move the component to child configurations and cases (child of this case or configuration). Note that this operation changed data in other cases and configurations in the project. If this operation violates case management rules (configuration components cannot be added to cases for example), the operation is aborted to avoid removing the component from child cases/configs
