rolling offset

I am trying to connect these two pipes. there is a 2 degree vertical offset and a 3 degree horizontal offset, between the two pipes. I have tried the "line to pipe" command but it does not connect the pipes i just get three pieces of pipe. When i try to continue the pipe it continues it straight then puts a 90 at the end of it. I do not have a lot of experience with plant 3D  , so any pointers would be helpful. Thank you.

Hi,

 

Try drawing the pipe with cutback elbows enabled.

I tried to usw the cutback option but it keeps snapping on to the 45 and 90 degree marks

it seems that as long as i stay in the same plane that i started in I am aable to run the pipe at any angle. It is when I switch to a different plane that it only snaps to the 45 degree increments
