Branch elbow not showing up on ISO

[gerrardhickson]

Hi All,

I've used an elbow with a branch in a project, and the modelling part has been OK, but it's not showing up in the ISO. It is displayed as a normal elbow without the branch, and there are no 'continued from' notes. It's as though it's just a plain elbow.

How do I resolve this?

Dear @gerrardhickson ,

what isometric settings have you made for this component?
SKEY=****,TYPE=****

with this it could work
SKEY=BTBW,TYPE=TEE

[gerrardhickson]

Previously it was: "SKEY=ELBW,TYPE=ELBOW"

When I changed it to "SKEY=BTBW,TYPE=TEE" I get the following:

It's pretty untidy, but at least it recognises that it's more than just an elbow.

How do I improve it from here?

On closer inspection, you have taken an Elbow with Nozzle CPBN for your component. Unfortunately, there is no isosymbol for this, please contact Autodesk Support.
I have tested with the CPTB part and it does not look bad.
Iso setting is: SKEY=BTBW,TYPE=TEE

I ended up replacing my elbows with the CPTB tees. The only problem though, is that my dimensions (as per first image) wouldn't display correctly in the ISO. The location of adjacent flanges was, OK, but the symbol itself didn't update correctly. I tried modifying the block in the ISO Symbol drawing, and it had some effect, but I couldn't get it completely correct. I'll try again later, but for now this is a workable solution.
