Pipe Segment |
Pipe Segments, apart Description The pipe segment component displays a quasi-3D pipe. In its basic form it looks very much like a rectangle with a round gradient. The difference comes in its advanced rendering of its edges and endcaps. You can configure each pipe segment's end to mate perfectly with another pipe segment butted up against it perpendicularly. The result looks like a pipe welded together in a 90° corner.
The control of the pipe's ends can be a bit confusing to a new user. It is done via 6 booleans - three per 'end'. End 1 is the top/left end, and End 2 is the bottom/right end. You turn off each boolean if there will be another pipe butted up against that side. The following diagram should make the naming conventions more clear:
