Summary
Use the PLANTCONNECTJOINT command to connect adjacent pipe and fittings. You can connect only those pipe components that have open ports. The open ports must be in-line and at the same location.
If a connection cannot be made when routing pipe, you can display an error message that explains why the joint is not created.
List of Prompts
The following prompts are displayed.
Select component

If a connection can be made, a connector object (for example: a Buttweld) is added and the open port markers are removed. If a connection cannot be made because of a property mismatch, the property values are listed in a dialog box.
