Position and Orientation Attributes

Keywords

POSITION ORIENTATION

Description

The Component position and orientation attributes describe their location with respect to Zone co-ordinates. This is because neither Branch nor Pipe have position or orientation attributes and therefore do not have a co-ordinate system.

Command Syntax

Component position and orientation are established using the pipe routing or ordinary positioning commands described elsewhere.
