Drawing Isometric Piping - page 7 |
Apply a contour from the Effects Roll-Up with the following settings: Outside, Offset 0.1 inch, Steps 1. The thickness of your pipe may differ from that shown. This is due to the scale of the drawings. Simply re-size your drawing until the results look the same, or adjust the offset dimension | |
Separate the Contour Group from the Arrange Menu and delete the inner line. Un-Group the outside shape and use the Node Edit Tool (F10) to delete one-at-a-time the extra nodes. The result will be flat lines across the ends of the pipe. | |
Use the Node Edit Tool (F10) to select the flat ends and change them to curves with the Node Edit Roll-Up (Ctrl+F10). Then select the effected nodes and smooth them with the Node Edit Roll-Up (Ctrl+F10). |
