Better duct - pipe drawing

Better duct - pipe drawing

Sometimes it's a nightmare to draw pipes and ducts, as you can't choose the axis or direction to go.

 

 

How to go up when drawing in 3D? You simply can't, you have to mess with offset parameter. So, drawing in 3D view is almost impossible.

 

The result is that Revit HVAC modelers spend hours battling with Revit in order to make simple models.

 

Plant3D system is WAY better. Control+right click and you can switch between axis and directions to draw in any direction, in any angle.

 

Come on guys, you can do better.

Being able to switch the drawing axis in 3D view would be incredible.  I do not understand why we can't toggle which axis like in Auto Cad or Sketchup.   I LOVE drawing my duct and pipe in 3D.  The only thing slowing me down is dropping sections and aligning them so I can draw vertically, Its a huge pain and I hope they add something like an axis toggle soon.
