Drawing Pipe Using the Context Menu

    Use this method when connecting to existing connectors on mechanical equipment, pipes, or fittings.

  1. In the drawing area, select a component to display its connectors.
  2. Right-click the connector where you want to connect the pipe, and click Draw Pipe or Draw Pipe Placeholder.

    When drawing pipe from a component with multiple stacked connectors, a Select Connector dialog displays to let you specify which connector to use.

  3. Drag the other end of the pipe to the desired destination.

    Transitions, tees and elbows are automatically added to the segment. If enabled in Type Properties, flanges are automatically added to the segment.
