Learning Tube & Pipe From Beginning, Looking For Tutorial

[p_ledu]

Hello,

i have to learn and develop the Tube and Pipe add-on for the society i'm working to.
After many and many hours of tries and online help searching, i'm still block at the beginning.

All i want for a first part is to create a T&P style with my own tube or pipe and parameters. So i create a Pipe with some parameters (InletDiameter [ID] OuletDiameter [OD] etc...)[Like ID: 25mm OD: 32mm for a 1" pipe and 10mm lenght by default]
Then, i do a "Ipart" to apply some others parameters and continue to Authoring it, the way, i hope, it have to be.

(Even if i think that i'm doing it well, i can't take off my head that my problem come from this part or the editing in content center part)

and i finish to put it in the content center !
Whatever, even if i find my authoring part while creating a new T&P style (like once in four times or never), the Tube and Pipe style dialog box don't save my personnal style !
All the menu flash one time every time i want to save and force me to quit without save.

So, i'm here to ask your help ! I Know that is a little too much to ask your help for the whole add-on but i'm seeing the time pass and nothing work.
So if you could indicate me where i can find a good tutorial who explain me this add-on from he beginning.
If you want i can make screenshots of all of the steps but being french, you'll don't understand as great as you native language, obviously.

Thanks for reading.
I hope you'll understand my purpose and problem with my english !


EDIT: All my problems are concern by the parameters and creating Authoring part/T&B styles. I know how to use well the routed systems in my purpose.

Welcome to the forums!

Here is the class I did at Autodesk University a few years ago to learn the basics.  I cover Authoring pipe in the handout found on >>this page<<.

Good luck.
