Customising Tube & Pipe Style

[Anonymous]

I want to customise the Tube & Pipe Style by using the existing fitting models (which I saved in Vault )from the supplier.

Currently only existing fitting style are able to get select.

Please suggest a solution

Thank you for the quick response

I had tried the same. But when we try to Browse for the fittings , its giving available fittings options only. There is no option to edit it. Please refer the attached image for your reference

It sounds like you want to edit the fittings, is that what you're asking?   Editing fittings come from the Content Center editor and not under editing a T&P style.  Are you looking to make your own fittings and/or edited the fittings that come with the Inventor installation?

Yes. I want to edit the fitting coming from Inventor installation.

How to do the editing the content library .Hope user level we will have rights for that.

Then you need to make your own custom Inventor content center library and copy over the provide family to your read/write library and then use the Content Center editor to make changes as needed.

and my Vault Bro @cbenner  also has a lot of great info on his blog site regarding this subject matter https://cadtipstricks.wordpress.com/category/inventor-tube-pipe/ and he is hosting a class at Autodesk University 2019 on publishing content for content center.

Thank you. We are close to the solution now

Currently I have only Read access. Which all permissions are needed to do this?

@Anonymous 

Read only permissions where?

Are you using Vault managed content center or not using Vault at all.

[Anonymous]

Yes.We are using Vault for content center management. I am not able to edit anything in that now

Sounds like you are not assigned the content center editor role in Vault.   Have you Vault admins add this role to your your Vault account.
