thomnj Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 How can I change the hanging angle of a piece of Sch 40 pipe using the Lighting Pipe tool? Want the pipe to be perpendicular to stage rather than parallel. Thank you. Quote Link to comment
JBenghiat Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 Set the J Rotation to 90. The rotation affects the 3D component and the footprint of the position. Quote Link to comment
thomnj Posted November 10, 2017 Author Share Posted November 10, 2017 Thanks much. It looks good in 3D, but in 2D, the pipe is still running horizontal. Any way to solve that dilemma? Quote Link to comment
JBenghiat Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 How do you plan on drawing the position? Rotate the 2D portion how you would like, vertically, at an angle, etc. The footprint is what gives you a top/plan representation of the position. The main 2D component is a schematic view of the pipe that you would use to draw lights etc. in elevation. If you simply need a 3D pipe without the schematic 2D view, extrude a 1.9" diameter circle.
