Transcript

Use the justification tool to specify the justification for the different sized piping and ducts.

The justification editor allows you to align the tops, bottoms, or sides of pipes and ducts in a section of the system. In this example, we'll use the justification tool to align this duct system to the walls.

First, we'll select the ducts that we want to justify.

Press tab to highlight the segments that you want to justify, and click to select the ducts.

Under the Ducts tab click Justify in the Edit panel to access the justification editor.

You can use the control point tool to determine which end of the ductwork will be used for justification reference.

Click the control point tool to toggle between references.

The arrows along the duct system indicate which direction is used as a reference. To justify the duct system, select one of the nine justification options.

Let's click the Upper Right justification option.

To preview the justification in the view, you can click Alignment Line to display a dotted line indicating the selected justification option.

Notice how the alignment line adjusts to reflect the upper right justification selection.

Press Escape when you are finished previewing. Select Finish.

We can see that the duct line is now neatly justified along the inside wall.

Use the justification tool to specify the justification for the different sized piping and ducts.
