I am building a 3D version of a space and we have many lighting pipes that are stacked vertically. For example pipe A, B, C; with A = 20' from floor, B = 22' from floor, and C = 24' From floor. What I am looking todo is the following. When I am in Top/Plan view, the lighting pipes are going to be a single lines that goes up the page with spacing. When I move to any 3D view, I would like the pipes to show as pipes in their vertical stacked orientation. I have somewhat figured this out as I have a line and a 3D pipe both created when a make a hanging position, Where I fall into issue, and I'm not sure if this can be done, Is then I place a lighting fixture/Device, I would like to to show on the single line on the Top/Plan view, and then when moving into 3D view, have the light hang on the 3D pipe. So in a way its showing a schematic view. Also when I do this I place the light on the 2D pipe, and then I switch to a 3D view, the pipe moved but the lights don't. I am working with Vectorworks 2019. I have tried the lighting pipe ladder took, but that is not doing what I want to it do.

Hello,
I am building a 3D version of a space and we have many lighting pipes that are stacked vertically. For example pipe A, B, C; with A = 20' from floor, B = 22' from floor, and C = 24' From floor. What I am looking todo is the following. When I am in Top/Plan view, the lighting pipes are going to be a single lines that goes up the page with spacing. When I move to any 3D view, I would like the pipes to show as pipes in their vertical stacked orientation. I have somewhat figured this out as I have a line and a 3D pipe both created when a make a hanging position, Where I fall into issue, and I'm not sure if this can be done, Is then I place a lighting fixture/Device, I would like to to show on the single line on the Top/Plan view, and then when moving into 3D view, have the light hang on the 3D pipe. So in a way its showing a schematic view. Also when I do this I place the light on the 2D pipe, and then I switch to a 3D view, the pipe moved but the lights don't. I am working with Vectorworks 2019. I have tried the lighting pipe ladder took, but that is not doing what I want to it do.
