THROUGH POSITION
Description
This command allows the designer to position the Component through the intersection with a fixed design element or position (say a Nozzle) or a cursor position. The Component is positioned along the constrained centerline where the reference plane intersecting, say, the specified Nozzle, cuts at right angles. For cursor positioning it is therefore advisable to use orthogonal views for orthogonal piping.
Examples |
|
|---|---|
|
POS THR /TANK5 |
The origin of the current Component will be positioned on the constrained centerline where this intersects the perpendicular reference plane through the named element (refer to the Positioning through an intersection image). |
|
POS PA THR E3000 |
The Arrive point of the current Component will be positioned on the constrained centerline where the perpendicular reference plane through E3000 0 0 intersects (refer to the Positioning through an intersection image). |
|
THR @ |
The Component will be placed on the constrained centerline where the perpendicular reference plane indicated by the cursor intersects (refer to the Positioning through an intersection image). |
Note:
The reference plane is perpendicular to the constrained centerline. If the cursor
is used, the position will be located on the working grid nearest to the cursor.
