Routing pipes at angles

Hello,

 

what i am wanting to do is connect pipes at an angle - maybe 3° max. but make the pipes actually connect with a gasket - currently it shows them leaking and doesn't insert a gasket

 

I am using the UK DI pack and trying to connect push fit socket spigot pipework see below

pipe not connecting.png

the pieces pipework on the left are connected (but not) at a slight angle to each other

 

the ones on the right are joined straight - this produces a gasket and doesn't show the pipes leaking

 

i understand on other specs you would be able to use the cutback elbow or whatever to trim a bend  but this wont work for this type of pipework. 

 

is there a way to get these to connect properly?

 

cheers

Dear @Anonymous,

 

you can change these settings via the DefaultConnectorsConfig.xml.
