Design > Solid > Create > Pipe

Path

Specifies the paths to follow for the Pipe.

Chain Selection

Specifies whether to include tangentially connected edges, or select individual edges.

Distance

Specifies the length of the Pipe as a decimal percentage of the selected path.

Operation

Select an operation to control how the feature affects the design.

• Join: Combines the new body with an existing body.
• Cut: Cuts an area out of an existing body.
• Intersect: Creates a body at the intersection of an existing body and the new body.
• New Body: Creates a new body in the active component.
• New Component: Creates a new body in a new component.

Objects To Cut

Select to recompute bodies or maintain the current bodies.

• Auto-Select re-computes the bodies to cut based on the current visibility state.
• # Bodies cuts the same bodies that were included when the cut operation was created.

Available for cut operations only. The option is only active when you edit operations.

When you create a cut operation, the bodies to affect are determined based on visibility. Bodies that are visible will participate. Bodies that are not visible will not participate.

When you edit the operation in the timeline, the cut is recalculated. You can choose to recompute the bodies to cut (Auto-select) or keep the bodies that were used when the operation was created (# Bodies).

• Circular Enables symmetry on the length of the box.
• Square Enables symmetry on the width of the box.
• Triangular Enables symmetry on the height of the box.
