Alignment from pipe network

[Anonymous]

I have a small sanitary network with 4 new manholes attaching to an existing manhole. I am unable to use a reference alignment or surface. After I have the network designed, I make an alignment from the network and let it make a profile view. When I select the first and last manholes to define the alignment, the entire network highlights as if selected. However, the actual alignment begins at the second manhole omitting the first manhole and pipe. These do not show in the profile either even though when you look at the profile view properties, both the first manhole and first pipe are checked that they are drawn in the profile. How do I get them included in the alignment and subsequently the profile?
Thanks

use either Pipes>Add Pipes to Profile view

or

pick the profile view, right click, go to the pipes tab and choose the pipe
numbers you want.
