A dashed line shows the point snapped from the face.
Click the face to create the route point at the intersection with the tool.
Enter Precise Values
Although all route points can be selected interactively, sometimes exact values
are needed to create the required route. You can enter precise values for both
angles and distances. The values entered are the distance or angle from the
active position to the current node. If a point was snapped onto a line of the
3D Orthogonal Route tool, the value entered is the distance from the snap
point to the desired node to add. The entered values must comply with set
rules for segment length; otherwise, you are prompted to reenter the value.
For tubing with bends styles, you can also enter a precise bend radius.
To enter an exact distance, start typing the value while your cursor pauses
over the direction axis of the 3D Orthogonal Route tool. You can also
right-click and select Enter Distance to enter a value.
Entering angles is very similar. To enter an angle, start typing the needed value
while your cursor pauses over a rotation arrow or bent tube rotation arrow.
You can also right-click and select Enter Angle to enter an angle.
Enter exact distances while your cursor pauses over the rotation arrows,
rotation arrows, or direction axes of the 3D Orthogonal Route tool.
Enter the value for the distance.
