Mitered Round Straight Duct
« on: Sep 03, 2019, 21:39:52 PM »
Is there a CID that allows mitering on straight round duct?
Our work around is to make mitered elbows and not cut the other half.

I use CID#186 with zero border. "Fix Relative" inserts the part by the node of the mitered end so rotation/relocation is required after insertion. The mitered end does not display a terminating edge, neither line nor ellipse depending on rotation, so I manually draw the terminating (mitered) end. It's a little wonky but it works, fortunately we do not use a lot of them.  8)
