How to separate the cables?

[VW_Harry]

Hello VW

How are you doing guys?

 

If you open my attached test vw file. You will see the connected cables.

I found a video on YouTube regarding this. But I can't follow up. 

When I draw the cables, its looks like B. but I wanted to draw like A. 

How to do the that?

Hi @VW_Harry

 

Well there are several ways:

 

1. with the Connect tool. After you have clicked on the source socket a preview line extends to the cursor. Click at any intermediate point to add a vertex, ( move about and do it again if you like. ) then click the destination socket to complete. Try it and you'll see what I mean.

 

2. Draw the circuits as you did in B. Select them. Then use the ReRoute Circuits tool and hover over the first circuit - it highlights - now click and drag the mouse and you'll see the preview of spaced out circuits, release and you're done. Harder to describe in words than to do.

 

Best

Ah, in 1. I mean just draw the circuits the way you want them. The Connect tool doesn't separate circuits.

Number 2 is exatcly I was looking for. I missed the highlights.

Thank you so much.
