AutoCAD Based Couplings (Ribbon/Toolbar/Location)

Button: Insert Couplings

Description:

The diameter tag HANDLE is 0000 this number is used to determin if the pipe is sloped - yielding an incorrect pipe length. Move Line / Move Main make the diameter tag HANDLE be 0000

Solutions:

Cause:

The diameter tag HANDLE is 0000 this number is used to determin if the pipe is sloped - yielding an incorrect pipe length. Move Line / Move Main make the diameter tag HANDLE be 0000

Solution:

1. Re-insert pipe diameter tags on pipes altered by Move Line or Move Main commands. 2. Raise the drawing into the 3D System Model. The process updates all the pipe length tags based on the actual pipe length in the 3D Model. It also makes all the handles be BLANK which will report the correct pipe length when cutting in couplings afterwards. 3 AutoCALC & AutoLIST will always use the correct pipe lengths as system goes into the 3D Model at the beginning of both processes. This is self-correcting.
