To Merge Pipe Networks

When you merge pipe networks, no pipe network parts are moved. However, the selected parts are associated with a different pipe network name.

  1. Click Modify tabDesign panelPipe Network.

    The Pipe Networks contextual tab is displayed in the ribbon.

  2. On the Modify panel, click Merge Networks.
  3. In the Select Source Pipe Network dialog box, select the pipe network that you want to merge with another pipe network, and then click OK.

    The source pipe network is the pipe network that will be added to the destination pipe network.

  4. In the Select Destination Pipe Network dialog box, select the desired destination pipe network, and then click OK.

The pipe network parts from the source pipe network are added to the destination pipe network. The source pipe network name is deleted from the Prospector tree.

Most of the part properties of the selected parts are not modified when merging pipe networks. Part properties such as the referenced surface, referenced alignment and labeling, remain unchanged when merged. The only part property that changes is the pipe network that the parts are associated with.
