In the context of AVEVA E3D Design 3.1 , "Text" refers to specific structural elements and functional capabilities used to store information within the database and generate documentation. The TEXT Element

2. Platform Architecture Changes

for automating model checks and customizing the user interface to reduce manual engineering hours. E3D vs. Rivals : For those choosing between software suites, this E3D vs. SP3D comparison

To be efficient in E3D 3.1, you must master these three concepts:

• The Explorer: Your navigation tree (similar to Windows Explorer but for the 3D model hierarchy).
• The Form: The properties window where you input data, names, and attributes.
• The Graphical View: The 3D viewport.
• The Command Line: Located at the bottom; essential for typing quick commands (e.g., Q ATT to query attributes).

6. Critical Limitations and Administration

Problem:

PML functions from PDMS fail. Solution: E3D 3.1 requires PML version 3.0 syntax. You must refactor any legacy code referencing !obj referencing (now uses this ).
