Hello!

Your best bet is to use the MOVE PIPE grip. After selecting a pipe, there are three squares you can select, circled in the screenshot below.

Selecting any of these begins the MOVE PART command. This will let you move the pipe. You can move it to the wall, then move it whatever distance it's supposed to be. There are more elegant ways to do this in one command, but this is a simple way to do it.

Your question is pretty basic. I would recommend looking around at the AutoDesk-produced resources or even YouTube tutorials to learn the essentials of Plant. Posting questions like this to the forums isn't bad, but you're more likely to get an answer if you try to find it yourself.

If that's not simple enough, you may be using the wrong software.
