Did a large project today with lots and lots of sleeves and valves... some of these may already be possible, I just don't know how to do them...
Ability to add a sleeve size immediately after making the sleeve
"find unsized sleeve" function
delete all pipe labels
delete all sleeve labels
quick way to change sleeve size instead of deleting the callout or changing the text
align all valve callouts to a line

Julie,
There are definitely some features already in the system, but still a few things you will need to do manually for now.
"Find unsized sleeves"- As long as you label at least one of your sleeves, when you verify your mainline you will be given the option to highlight valves not called out. Click that button and all sleeves not labeled will highlight cyan.
"Delete all pipe labels"- The easiest here would be to run the LAYDEL command. This will delete everything on the particular layer you click on. Since we auto organize the lateral, mainline, and sleeve labels on their own layers, you will be able to be specific to what you try and delete without deleting everything.
"Delete all sleeve labels"- Same as described above.
"Change sleeve size"- This will still need to be done manually. We have a few noted improvements that we would like to apply to the functionality of sleeves, but have higher priority items ahead.
"Aligning valve callouts"- Also something that will need to be done manually. Unfortunately the mleader callout options are not yet compatible with how the valve and plant callouts function. This is definitely noted and we will continue to look into these improvements.
