not be dropped on straight segments.
For a placed fitting or a routed fitting for which you have changed the fitting
diameter, you can:
■ Change its orientation, as well as connection point.
■ Change the fitting route point position on straight rigid segments.
■ Replace existing fittings.
■ Restore original fittings, typically elbows and couplings.
■ Delete placed fittings and default couplings. You cannot delete the default
directional fittings.
Place Fittings in the Active Project Workspace
Fittings from the active project workspace are added to the design using the
Place Fitting tool on the Pipe Run tab.
NOTE You cannot place conduit parts using this tool.
