Create Routing Line

Icon1 Piping toolbar

With the help of this function, a routing line is created from which a 3D piping system can afterwards be generated.

Routing line property bar

piping-system
By selecting the function, the property bar is displayed where the most important parameters can be set. However, the fine adjustment is made in the routing line parameters dialog.

If you draw a routing line with the help of this function, no fittings are generated at the intersections of the routing lines.

The parameters are the same as for the standard pipe system.
