Connecting Fixed Parts

Hi,

 

I wonder how do I connect fixed parts.

In annex printscreen we have fixed length flanged pipes and flanged elbows, this arrangement was made just to demonstrate the problem.

 

We can connect all parts, but when we got in last connection it does not connect. And if you try to connect, the whole arrangement goes out of place and even so it does not connect.

 

Is there any way to put a gasket manually?

Try to use connect component to adjacent in the right button menu.

Dear Halitomi, I had tried that but it did not work.

 

But now I tried again and it worked. How odd!

 

I really liked this site you used. How do I get the video in full screen?

 

 

Thank You Again.

Hey, Halitomi.

 

Sometimes it works, sometimes it does not.

Strange. I don't have any idea what is going on in this case.

 

I see you found out how to use this screen recording site. 🙂 Very useful. Especially here as pictures sometimes are not enough.

 

I also have an other idea, just I am not at my working computer to check it. There is an xml file in the plant content folder which tells the program what is the default radius of the bends and stuff like that, and I think I saw there some tolerance values also. Maybe if you increase those it will help you out.
