Details on Flange Profile (Air Duct)
Information about the Air duct flange profile dialog for 3D air duct construction.
Flange profiles create the connection between ducts, fittings and built-in parts. In this dialog you can select manufacturer profiles or enter your own profiles and change profiles of already drawn air ducts. Manufacturer profiles are only available if a suitable data set has been installed.
If you select Automatic assignment, specify up to which edge length the connectors are to be used.
You can also change the connector to be used while drawing ducts by calling the context menu with the right mouse button, selecting Properties and setting the profile in the Flange profile section.
