trying to add flex duct to connect my diffusers to my low pressure ductwork.
If I use hard round ductwork everything works fine and looks good. If I try to
perform the exact same inputs using flex, the ductwork shoots way out to no
where land and comes in all messed up. Is there any special requirement when
adding flex duct from a diffuser to hard rectangular ductwork? Has anyone been
able to due this successfully?

put it bluntly, the spline routine is a piece of (edited).
Have you ever
taken a tube and twisted it? The throat will deform choking off the clearance
inside. That's exactly what that spline routine does. The ductwork does not
hold its shape. At certain points on a 10"dia. duct it looks like its almost
flat and have 2" of clearance.

Hi Jody,
Aren't you using spline mode flex duct for
connection? Connect with arc flex segment will get odd
results like yours in this case. If you are using spline segment, please
check the osnap settings and make sure it's "osnapping" to the correct
duct or connector when connecting from diffuser, especially when you have
overlapping ductworks. If it still doesn't work for you, would you
mind sending me the drawing so that I can take a look?
Thanks,
Kevin Mak [Autodesk]
