tube and pipe min increment butt weld

[Tim.Malkowski]

Hi All,

I am looking to find out if there is a way of controlling the minimum increment length of tube when selected as butt weld in the styles.  

The issue i am having is i want two fittings to be weld together in a run and i can't do this without having a small segment of pipe inbetween. 

Is there anything that can enable this to happen.  As the vid in the link below suggests that limiting the min increment will achieve this.

Hi @Tim.Malkowski ,

Could you point to the exact minute, second when that is being explained. I can't remember the context I have mentioned that and I admit that sometimes it's hard to make myself clear and concise.

In order to connect fittings in series you have several options.

- Place them as fittings and route from them.

- Create a run and then use insert fitting 

- Create a run with very small distance between consecutive nodes and having a really small value for minimum segment length and increment.

The last option will generate a really small slice of pipe invisible to the eye and on a drawing but it will work nonetheless.

I think that's what I was talking about... 😞
