Applies to AutoCAD Plant 3D 2013, AutoCAD Plant 3D 2014, AutoCAD Plant 3D 2015, and
AutoCAD Plant 3D 2016

Issue:
By default spool drawings will be automatically split into separate drawing
sheets by welds and flanges. How to annotate the spools of a pipeline but
avoiding these splits of the isometric drawing.

Causes:
If checkbox "Spool format" for an iso style is checked in the project setup then
the resulting isometric drawing will be split automatically for every spool.

Solution:

If "Spool Format" is checked for your iso style uncheck it

Switch to the node "Isometric DWG Settings - Annotations"

Check "Spool and optionally change the enclosure

Optionally you can add a weld list to the iso.dwt of your used iso
style
