Pipeline and Pipeline Connector Properties
You will find several key properties useful when editing and configuring pipe-
lines and pipeline connectors.
Pipeline - elevation offset This setting will move the entire pipeline up or
down in the vertical axis. You can make a pipeline deeper by entering a nega-
tive value here. You should know that the pipeline style also has a Height Offset
value, and the value you enter in the Properties panel will be added to this one.
You'll learn more about pipeline styles later in this topic.
Pipeline - elevation offset from and elevation offset to These settings
adjust the elevation of each end of the pipeline. From refers to the beginning of
the pipe, and To refers to the end. If a value is entered for Elevation Offset, this
value will simply be added to it. If the pipeline has multiple segments, the offset
will be distributed across all the segments.
Pipeline - size X and size Y For circular pipes, Size X sets the diameter. The
use of both values applies to ellipses, rectangles, and channels, with X represent-
ing the width and Y representing the height.
Pipeline Connector - Height To set the depth of a structure such as a man-
hole or inlet, you set Height to a value that is the negative of the depth you want.
For example, for an inlet with a depth of 8, you would enter -8 for the Height.
This value must be entered for all pipeline connectors because there is no value
present in the style that establishes the height of the pipeline connector.
Pipeline Connector - orientation This value will rotate the the pipeline
connector about its own axis. It is independent of any rotation that you've set
using the rotate gizmo or the Rotate Z property.
the More the Merrier
You may be wondering if it's possible to change the properties of multiple pipe-
lines or pipeline connectors at once. Yes, you can. All you have to do is hold the
Ctrl key down while clicking the objects you want to select. You will probably
want to pick objects that are all the same (all pipelines or all pipeline connec-
tors) because if you mix object types, the Properties window shows only the
most general properties because those are the ones shared by both object types.
