Hi everyone,
In testing T&P for our use at work, I found a situation that I'm not sure how to fix. I want to create two pipe spools from one when I insert a flanged valve.
Here is my simple test spool; 8" reducing to 6" flange to flange:
I drop a wafer style check valve on the 6" pipe, and it's inserted correctly:
The browser still shows it as a single pipe spool. Demote is greyed out.
We need this to be two pipe spools, with the check valve the component between the two.
- Do I need to know the valve location first, and just make two spools?
- Is there any way to demote this into two spools?
- Does T&P have any way to automate this?
My boss thinks T&P should automatically create two spools in this situation...
Thanks for any help or suggestions-
