HOW TO CREATE TWO PORT PART IN PIPE SUPPORT SPEC.

I included some custom 3D models in the pipe support spec. It works properly if the part only has one port. However, if you add two ports to a part, the pipe route symbol for the second port does not appear in 3D modelling.

This is the model I'm attempting to create.

I believe it's a limitation of plant 3d, for the same reason a support like a trapeze or tee post never has more than a single attachment point, the software doesn't allow you to connect more than one line to a given support.  The reasoning, and I'm guessing, is that you wouldn't ever want that support called out on multiple isos, it could and would be purchased twice, no good.  So it attaches to one, is on that one's iso bom, and the other lines are just there, you can reference it however you want, except for actually attaching it.
