Changing Pipings

The course of a freely routed piping can be influenced graphically or through entries in the input box. Graphical changing of a piping is possible parallel to the X, Y and Z axis between the source and target. The piping route arising through the free routing can be optimized with as few further editing steps as possible in order to obtain the final piping routing. When editing a piping the design mode can also be used together with the activated object snap.

The following is possible:

Preconditions:

Moving a pipe segment / bending position

The working method for moving segments and bending positions is the same. The right-angled moving of a pipe segment is described here as an example.

  1. Select the following menu items: Edit > Graphic > Change bending positions
  2. To change the position of a pipe segment at a piping move the cursor over the segment.

    The segment is highlighted in color.
  3. Click the segment.

    Arrows are displayed in 4 orthogonal directions at the center of the segment.

  4. Select the direction in which you want to move the segment by clicking the green arrow.

    The segment can be moved in the selected arrow direction.

  5. Click the desired end point for the move or enter a distance value in the input box.

    The pipe segment / bending position is moved to the selected position. The adjacent segments are adapted correspondingly.
