Draw flexible pipe <

The Draw flexible pipe command works similarly to the Flexible connection command. In contrast, however, the course of the pipe can be freely determined with several support points. A flexible pipe is drawn between two components and can be routed over several corner points if required. If there is no free connection on a component, you will receive a corresponding message.

Components, manifolds or pipes to be connected are queried. Unlike rigid pipes, no fittings are installed when the direction is changed.

The transition from rigid to flexible pipe is always made through a manifold that can be connected to both types of pipe. It is possible to connect e.g. radiators with a flexible pipe to an existing flexible pipe. The necessary T-piece fitting is set directly.

When connecting with flexible pipe, only one medium can be connected at a time. The medium must be selected beforehand under Medium.
