Pressure Pipe Profile Change Insertion Vertex

[mcochran19]

I'm working in a pressure pipe water network PROFILE. Is there a setting to change the insertion elevation to the top of pipe, top of fitting and top of appurtenance, instead of it entering in at the center of the pipe, etc...

I appreciate any help... I thought it was a vertex setting in the network, but I can't seem to find the setting again.

Thanks

Hi mcochran19,

What i understood here is, you need to assign the insertion point elevation of pipe or fitting to top of pipe or fitting in one shot instead of doing it individual editing under pipe properties. Two methods are there to change/update these elevation.

Method-1: you know the over depth from surface to pipe top so you can do very minor calculation from the current insertion elevation of pipe and do follow surface so it will fit easily.

Method-2: Keep only pressure network tool and turn off other C3d and CAD objects, switch to 3d view and select your whole network and move up or down (in 3d view only) how much you need to rise or down with respect to pipe dia so in one shot your network will be updates.

If its not works let us know will try to fix this.

Thanks,
