Tube and pipe fitting connections

Hello everyone.





Is there a way to connect to fittings together inside piping with no space
in between them? For example if I wanted to connect two welded tees end to
end. I think I would be able to do it if the program would let me set the
minimum segment length to zero but it will not let me do that. I have tried
using the connect fitting option but that only lets me select the branch
connection (that is open) to do that with. Is there away around this
problem?



Thanks

right click the fitting and select edit fitting connections. select the connection you want to edit. in the drop menu below the list you can select "user defined" and enter a distance.

You can create a pipe run without a single piece of pipe by placing and constraining the first component in the run. Then place the second component, but before your place it, right mouse and select Connect. Repeat as needed.

Key here is... Start the run but not the route....
