Adding a Fitting from the Design Library

To add a fitting from the Design Library folder:

  1. While editing the 3D sketch, drag a fitting from the Design Library folder and point to the location in the 3D sketch where you want to place the fitting.
  2. Before dropping the fitting:


    • Press Tab to view possible alignments of the fitting.
    • Hold down Shift and press the left and right arrow keys to view possible angular orientations of the fitting. (Specify the rotation increments in Routing Options by setting Component rotation increment (degrees).)

  3. When the alignment and orientation are correct, drop the fitting.
  4. Select the desired configuration.

    By default, the list in the Select a Configuration dialog box includes only configurations with the correct diameter. To expand the list to include all the configurations in the part, select List all configurations.

  5. Click OK.
