Hi Team
I'm drawing a liquid separator (cylinder tank) with associated piping, the bottom 2 pipes are extending inside the filter tank as shown in pic-2. I would like to trim them using the tank wall (cylinder) so that the pipes will only start from the tank wall and extend to outside (thus I want to remove the inside extensions of those 2 pipes). How can I do that?
Appreciating your support with thanks
Antony
Hi,
>> thus I want to remove the inside extensions of those 2 pipes
Create an inner cylinder of your tank as temporary object, then run command _SUBTRACT to subtract this temporary cylinder from your pipes.

Hi,
>> but the subtract command doesn't seem to work
Please let me know what happens, especially what AutoCAD states in the command-line.
"Does not work" is not enough description to be able to help you.
Also the JPG is nothing that helps me to help you, I can't select objects in the JPG to see which type of object you have. If you upload the dwg-file we can see and select your objects to get informations about them.
>> the inner cylinder should follow the shop of my cylindrical tank right?
Sorry to now know what "shop" means in this context. I meant the tank's outer volume.

Hi,
as I get a proxy warning ... am I correct that you are you using Plant3D?
If so then this forum here is the wrong one (as well as my suggestions for how to handle 3D-Solids with Boolean operations).
Please re-ask (with dwg attached) in the >>>forum for Plant3D<<<
