From a customer: "When I mirror typical piping for an area, how can I get the riser nipples to rotate properly without having to reinsert them all?"
This is from the drawing he sent me:
There is a solution. And, the truth is, I didn't know about the following tool myself.
1. Pick the 3D Modeling Options command (3MO) to open the SMaRTools Options dialog
2. Then, pick the HydraPipe Setting tab
'
3. Pick the Change All RN Symbol Rotations button. This opens another dialog box:
4. For the example above, I chose Rotate By Process as my option and picked Proceed. I then pick four riser nipples and pressed <Enter>
Each riser nipple is the rotated to match the pipes it is connected to. Problem solved!
Note: To rotate the riser nipple text, use the Rotate Riser Text (RRT) command in the Cleanup Sizes toolkit.
