Connecting Fittings without a Tube in between
It is also possible to connect several inline parts in a sequence without having a tube in between. This can for instance be used to attach a reducer directly to a valve, or to create a sequence of valves without intermediate tubing. To achieve this, follow these steps:
1.
Drag and drop the inline part to the drawing area.
2.
Select the
Connection Point
tool (available on the
Home Tab
in the
Tools
group).
3.
Right-click on the connection point that you will be using to connect the new shape to the existing one.
4.
Select
Outward
from the right-click menu.
5.
Change back to the
Pointer
tool (available on the
Home Tab
in the
Tools
group or click
F8
).
6.
Position the mouse pointer close to the connection point that was just modified.
Important:
If the mouse pointer is closer to another connection point or to the centre point of the shape as the shape is dragged, it will not be possible to connect.
7.
Drag the shape so that the connection point aligns with the connection point of the existing shape.
