Routing Points

Contents

• Connection and Route Points
  

• Adding a Connection Point
  

• Sketch Point for a Connection Point
  

  A sketch point is required to locate the connection point.

• Adding a Route Point
  

  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.

• Connection Point PropertyManager
  

  The Connection Point PropertyManager appears when you create a connection point in a routing fitting (flange, elbow, electrical connector, etc.).

• Components with Multiple Connection Points
  

  Certain types of fittings, for example tees and crosses, can have multiple connection points (CPoints), but not all points need to be included in a route.

• Connection Point Parameters in a Design Table
  

  You use a design table to control the dimensions in the configurations of the fittings. In addition, use the design table to control the parameters of the CPoints for each configuration.

• Route CPoints PropertyManager
  

  When you drag a routing component with multiple CPoints to create a route, you can select CPoints to include in the route from the Multiple CPoints dialog box, provided the component is set up for multiple CPoint selection.
