To Attach to an Existing Component

The most common method of connecting components is "Fitting to Fitting." When using the AutoFitting option, this type of connection is made automatically.
  1. Select a component placement option.
  2. Snap to the endport of the existing component in the drawing and click a data point. The component is attached to the selected port of the existing component.
  3. The next step depends on the type of component being placed:
    • Branch or bend: Pick a point to define the rotation for the component.
    • Pipe: Pick another point in the drawing to define the length or enter a distance in the AccuDraw window.
