Vertical pipes (gravity and pressure) display incorrectly in profile view

[wpagl452]

The way pipe ends are currently calculated results in odd display issues for vertical pipes in profile view:

• There are odd angled/chamfered lines near the connection to the structure/fitting
• The pipe diameters skews more and more the closer the bend angle gets to 90 deg (fully vertical). 

This issue affects pressure networks more often since connections to gravity structures like manholes are almost always vertical. But this issue can affect both pipe and pressure networks.

Thank you for your idea. The development team will review the idea while customers continue to add feedback and vote on it.

Just had to raise a support case on this and got pointed to this post.  We really need things to be drawn correctly

It seems the software simply cuts off the pipe at the end station value which makes sense, but it looks bad for drawing presentation. Would be great to see a fix for this.

Is there any feedback on this issue after 2 years in review?

Hi, I wanted to follow up on this Idea. I am working on a project and struggling with this issue.

Bumping. Would like this to be fixed as well.

Is there any feedback with this? Recent 2027 version does not have anything new really useful. It seems that Civil 3D is not the software to improve but to resell

I would like to tag onto this post with another issue with both gravity pipes and pressure pipes. When using pipes with large wall thickness such as RCP, and the pipe is sloping either up or down, the ID and wall thickness are not drawn correctly. The correct ID and wall thickness are being drawn vertically and not perpendicular to the pipe.

This creates issues where you need to show section views of pipes and structures. See examples below.

Please fix this issue!
