Route Point PropertyManager
A Route Point is a point in a fitting (flange, elbow, electrical connector, and so on) that is used to position the fitting at an intersection or endpoint in the 3D sketch.
In a fitting with multiple ports (such as a tee or cross), you must create a sketch point at the intersection of the axes of the fitting before adding a Route Point.
To create a route point:
-
Click Create Route Point (Routing Tools toolbar) or Routing, Routing Tools, Create Route Point.
-
Under Selections in the PropertyManager, for Select sketch point :
-
For rigid pipe and tube fittings, select a sketch point in the graphics area.
-
For flexible tubes fittings or electrical cable connectors, select a sketch point and a planar face in the graphics area.
-
In a fitting with multiple ports, click the sketch point at the intersection of the axes.
-
In a flange, click a point that is in the center of the mating face of the flange, and concentric with the cylindrical faces of the part.
