Stub end treated as a connector

Just wondering if P3D has changed the stub end from a connector to a fitting yet? Any fab shop we send iso's to have an issue with the representation of the dimensions. One the overall dimension they are required to add in the stub end dimension. Is there a way to get the overall to include the stub end in the dimension?

Dear @BSchwartzkopf ,

 

Unfortunately, I can't recreate this behaviour on my end.
P3D 2024 Standard works.

H.eger it looks like you are dimensioning to the continuation piping. That is another issue our fabricators asked us to fix. They want to see the dimensions only on the items they are fabricating. I bet if you turn off dimensions to continuations it will dimension like mine does.

The reason they do not want the continuation is they will still have to do math to get the correct overall. They would need to subtract out the 1/16" or 1/8" thickness for the gasket in the dimension you have for the overall. It's not a true overall for the piping they are building.
