Moving Entire Pipe Network to different horizontal datum

[millermccoy]

My coordinate system got moved.

Anyway to move my entire pipe network at once?

You can pick up the structures and move them en masse with the MOVE command but IME the pipes don't APPEAR to follow. You will then need to select each stc by the grip and attempt to move it without doing so to get the pipes to snap into place. I typically set the INSERT snap and grip edit the structure to place it right back where it is.

yeah the move command only moves the structures...

looks like no way to move all the pipes at once

I have done this in the past by going to the Network in Prospector, r/c choose Select which selects all structures & pipes. Then issue the Move/Rotate commands and move/rotate by the known displacement/rotation. Everything stays connected using this method.

perfect...thanks!

I see you can select the alignment to move it at the same time...nice

Anyway to change all the pipe inverts by 0.43 feet?

Very cool Jeff thanks a bunch.

As for moving the pipes in Z, the OP should be able to do this with the move command and relative input.

Move, base point is any point on screen, destination point is @0,0,.43

thanks!
that works...very nice
