Adjusting Riser Nipple Text to Take up Less Room

A few customers point out that the riser nipple text takes up too much room. They would like move the text closer to the clamshell and minimize the empty gap. This is easy to do:

1. Open up the VP and VPRJ drawings in the \HES\HydraCAD\Ver50\Programs\50.1 or 50.2 folder. Cancel any dialogs that may come up

2. Using grips, move the white text as close to the circle as you like. Do not move the circle closer to the text!

3. Save the edited drawings

4. Start a new drawing and draw some pipes and insert a riser nipple into it to check the results

Note: The last step is key. If you try to insert a riser nipple into a drawing that already has a riser nipple you will see the old block repeated, not the new block
