5 Click to insert the second node.
Move a hose node
1 Right-click the new route point, and select 3D Move/Rotate.
2 Drag the triad in any direction. You can also enter a precise value along
the X, Y, or Z axes.
3 Click Apply or OK.
NOTE If you want to move the hose node that is tangent to the circular edge of
the IBeam, you must right-click the node and clear the Associative check mark.
Redefine a hose node
1 To change the position of the new node, right-click the route point and
select Redefine.
When you move the cursor over planar surfaces or existing work geometry,
the Edit Offset tool appears.
2 Move the cursor to the planar face of the I-Beam.
The offset guide indicates the offset value. By default it is the last selected
offset value or the system default value of 0.440 in for this style.
3 Do either of the following:
■ To use the default offset value, click to set the node.
■ To change the offset value, pause the cursor at an appropriate point,
right-click and select Edit Offset, and then enter a precise value.
The route is recomputed.
4 Right-click and select Done.
Delete a hose node
1 To delete the new route point that you just redefined, right-click the node
and select Delete.
2 Repeat to delete the other inserted route point.
3 After deleting both route points, save the top-level assembly file.
