Modifying a Bend or a Segment

You can edit an existing node or segment. In modify mode, the context selection is the same as in creation mode.

Before you begin: Open a product containing a route.
  1. Double-click a route.
    You switch to the Piping & Tubing 3D Part Design app and a yellow symbol appears on each node of the route.
  2. Click next to the bend you want to modify.
    The 3D Manipulator appears and the Bend manipulator is activated.
  3. On the context toolbar, click Modify Bend .
    The 3D manipulator becomes yellow to indicate that you are in Modify Mode and an anchor is displayed to specify which segment is fixed.

  4. Select one of the following manipulators:
    • Length Manipulator to modify the length of the segment.
    • Bend manipulator to modify the angle value of the bend or to use the commands available in the context toolbar.
    • Orientation manipulator to modify the orientation of the route.

    For any modification, a yellow preview of the route appears.

  5. Drag the selected manipulator.
    The node or segment has been modified.
