RBD Properties

You can customize the appearance of your RBD Blocks and set colors for Path Set and Cut Set highlighting using the RBD Properties. To access RBD Properties, click Properties from the Sidebar menu when RBD is active. The RBD Properties dialog appears.

To display the block name on your blocks, select Show Name. 

When Show Name is checked, you can also specify the Font Size - you can select from Very Small, Small, Medium, or Large. By default, the font size is set to Large. Changing the Font Size will change the size of Name text shown on each block in your diagram.

You can control how the Quantity is displayed on your blocks. To never display Quantity, clear the Show Quantity checkbox.

If you select the Show Quantity checkbox, select whether you want the Quantity to display always or only when greater than 1.

To display a calculated result value in your blocks, select the Show Calculation Result checkbox. If selected, choose from the dropdown list of result values: Availability, Unavailability, Reliability (the default), Unreliability, Mean Availability, Mean Unavailability, Failure Frequency, Downtime, or Number of Failures.

When Show Calculation Result is checked, you have the option to check Show Results in Scientific Notation. Note that Show Results in Scientific Notation is disabled if the Calculation Result is set to Number of Failures. When Show Results in Scientific Notation is checked, the selected Calculation Result will be shown in scientific notation.

For Path Set Highlighting and Cut Set Highlighting, for Highlight Color, click the dropdown list to display the color selector control. Select the color you prefer to use when reviewing the Path Sets and Cut Sets on your RBD. Click the Apply button to save your color. 

Click Save to save your preferences.
