used selectively, since they can occupy a lot of PFD “real estate” If the resolution of the display makes it difficult to read the property lists, use PRO/II’s Zoom feature to enlarge the table Simply press PgUp to increase the resolution until the size of the text is comfortable to read Note: It is also possible to create custom stream properties lists Choose Stream Property Lists… from the Options menu on the main PRO/II menu bar This opens the Define Stream Property List dialog box Analogous tools are available for displaying properties of unit operations Exporting the PFD to the Windows Clipboard PRO/II provides the option to copy the PFD drawing to the Windows clipboard From the clipboard, it is simple to paste the drawing in any word-processing or report-writing program, such as Microsoft Word or Corel WordPerfect To export the PFD to the clipboard: Choose File→Export from the main PRO/II menu bar Click the radio button for Flowsheet Drawing Click OK PRO/II displays a dialog box confirming that the flowsheet has been exported to the clipboard www.cadfamily.com EMail:cadserv21@hotmail.com The document is for study only,if tort to your rights,please inform us,we will delete PRO/II 8.1 Getting Started Guide 9-5 Figure 9-5: Flowsheet Exported to the Clipboard Note: The PRO/II PFD Export feature produces a high quality rendering of the PFD drawing Only the contents of the PFD window are captured This is superior to the standard Windows Alt+PrtSc screen capture, which is limited to the display terminal resolution and captures the entire PRO/II program window Producing a Stream Report in a Spreadsheet PRO/II can produce a preformatted stream report in Microsoft Excel Figure 9-6 shows part of a stream report from the demethanizer flowsheet simulated in the previous tutorial sessions Select the item Tools→Spreadsheet →Stream Properties from the main PRO/II window The stream report is automatically formatted and displayed in Excel www.cadfamily.com
