Raylux 0.24.5: symbol orientation

Motors, pumps and valves can be turned, and the mountings follow.

Orientation

Symbols take an Orientation — up, down, left or right — which points the outlet: the motor shaft, the pump discharge, the valve flow axis.

Three rules follow from it, each really a statement that a turned machine is a different object:

• Reversing an axis is a mirror, not a half turn. A pump discharging left is the same pump seen from the other side; rotated 180 degrees it is upside down.
• Feet do not rotate, but they do mirror — a pedestal stays on the floor, and a reflection carries the machine's footprint across the drawing.
• A quarter-turned machine mounts differently. Foot mountings are shaped to meet the barrel lying down; stood on end the machine cannot reach them. Each pose now has its own drawn mounting.

Schematic P&ID symbols get no pedestal when turned, and the P&ID motor no longer rotates at all — a circle with an M in it has no shaft to point, and turning it only turned the letter.

Fixes

• No installer had ever included the project templates, so "new project from template" was empty on every gateway.
• The sample project's symbols were configured with a setting nothing reads, so the page meant to show three symbol styles side by side drew three identical ones.
• A valve placed in a horizontal pipe run was drawn a quarter turn away from the line it sits in.
• Deep links into a template's pages did not work, because the page configuration was stored under a name nothing reads.
