Drawing vertical conduits when parallel become angled??

I am trying to draw a riser by first doing an elevation view and conduits straight through the slab.

 

Then I parallel them accordingly.

But when I go to PLAN view they conduits are at an angle. Either I have been staring at the screen too long or something is wrong? Please HELP!

Hi @victorwongiam

 

Hope you are well! Smiley Happy

 

Is it only Vertical Conduits, through the slab without any bends? If so, you can also make use of the ARRAY TOOL and create a linear array. 

 

Also, if you have bends and you need to use the parallel conduits tool, I would select the runs in the elevation/section, then click on my plan view window to activate it, then use the parallel conduits tool from there. 

 

Let me know if you still receive the same problem. Smiley Happy

Thank you Rudi for your kind message.

 

They are straight risers and it worked perfectly! Although in the future if I want to move a row closer or farther, I was playing with the ungroup and shifting the row over in plan view?
