Adding, Replacing and Removing Objects

You can add, replace and remove the routed objects.

This task shows you how to:

Add Objects

While routing the branches, you can add objects to it.



To add an object before or after an object in the list:

  1. In the Route Definition dialog box, select an object in the list.

  2. Select Add before or Add before.

  3. Select another object in the geometry area.

Here the object (a point) is added to the flexible curve before the object selected in the list (a support).



Replace Objects

While routing the branches, you can replace an object with the other object in the geometry area.

To replace an object in the list with another one, for example an equipment connector:

  1. In the Route Definition dialog box, select the connector you want to replace in the list.

  2. Select Replace.

  3. Select another connector in the geometry area.

The result looks like this:



Remove Objects

While routing the branches, you can remove the objects.

To remove an object from the list:

  1. In the Route Definition dialog box, select the object you want to remove from the list.

  2. Click Remove.

The object (here a support) is removed from the flexible curve.



Change a Connector

When changing a connector in the Route Definition dialog box, you can modify the branch/segment orientation without noticing it:



  1. Click Remove to delete the purple connector:


    • Point.1 is the Routed Object selected.
    • Add after is selected by default.

  2. Click Add before, then select the new connector (the blue one).

    Note that the option returns to the default value: Add after.

    Important: If you do not select Add before, the blue connector will be added to the network after Point.1 and the branch/segment orientation will be changed, as shown below.
