Creating a Custom Pipe Configuration

When multiple pipe segments are the same length, a single configuration is used for all instances. However, you can create custom configurations in the pipe part when you want to add a feature to a selected segment.

For example, a custom configuration is needed if you add a hole to one pipe segment, but you do not want the hole to appear on other segments of the same length.

To create a custom pipe configuration:

  1. Right-click the segment from which you want to create a custom configuration, and select Create Custom Pipe\Tube Configuration.
  2. Add the feature to the selected segment.
