Hi Patric -
To accomplish this you are going to need to add a takeoff and a small
section of duct then connect the sidewall diffuser to the duct. Only
Accessories and Takeoffs support connection "along" the duct segment at this
point.
You could also create a workplane hosted familiy and host the diffuser to
the side of the duct if you are only concerned about making it "look" right,
but there is no way to make the actually connect to the duct (so there won't
be any flow propagation).
I've added an image of how this will look with the takeoff and small segment
trick (assuming of course that the forums will allow a .png, if this doesn't
work check my next post for some .jpg's).

Please see the attached picture.
I am wanting to attach sidewall diffusers as shown in the picture and
acatually make them a part of the air system except when you place a
sidewall diffuser on to duct it breaks the duct work at the diffuser and
actually places that diffuser at the end of that duct work....which kinda
makes the name "side wall difuser" a little misleading. What is the correct
method to attaching this air terminal to the side of duct as shown in the
"side
wall diffuser problem.jpg", so that it is included in the attachment of
the rest of the duct accessories and fittings. ( in other words if i were to
move the duct these air terminals will follow or if I tabb 3 times while
hovering over the duct it will grab everyghing attached to the duct system,
including these sidewall difusers.
