Max Length Pipe Routing Question

Getting a bit frustrated...

Modeling a 24" line in Plant3D. In the Spec Editor I set pipe length to 20' lengths. As I begin routing pipe from start point I notice that the first pipe break is in line with a stub in. What I would like to do is first run a 10' length of pipe and then continue 20' lengths from there. When I try to do that P3D automatically keeps changing the first piece of pipe off the flange from 10' to 20 https://9apps.ooo/'.

Any ideas out there??? Thanks!

Dear @ukhanjemb74 ,

 

unfortunately, there is no differentiated length input, either fixed length for all pipes or manual setting of weld seams or flange joints.

Hi,

 

A possible workaround would be to manually add a weld into the pipe at 10' from the flange. This weld will stay in place and allow you to route 20' lengths from there.
