Description
This tool allows to create corner or tee connection between two or three selected Arch Pipes.
Usage
- Select 2 or 3 Arch Pipes. If you are selecting 3 pipes, two of them must be exactly aligned.
- Press the Arch PipeConnector button, or press P then C keys.
Properties
- DataRadius: The curvature radius of this connector
Typical workflow
See the information on Arch Pipe for the workflow on using pipes and creating connectors.
Scripting
See also: Arch API and FreeCAD Scripting Basics.
The Pipe Connector tool can be used in macros and from the Python console by using the following function:
Connector = makePipeConnector(pipes, radius=0, name="Connector")
- Creates a
Connector
object from the givenpipes
, which is a list of Arch Pipes, and optionally aradius
of curvature.- The base objects (Draft Wires) of the Arch Pipes should share an endpoint so they create a proper, smooth connector.
Example:
import FreeCAD, Draft, Arch
p1 = FreeCAD.Vector(-1000, 0, 0)
p2 = FreeCAD.Vector(-2000, 0, 0)
p3 = FreeCAD.Vector(-2000, 0, 0)
p4 = FreeCAD.Vector(-2000, -1000, 0)
p5 = FreeCAD.Vector(-2000, -1000, 0)
p6 = FreeCAD.Vector(-4000, -1000, 0)
Line1 = Draft.makeWire([p1, p2])
Line2 = Draft.makeWire([p3, p4])
Line3 = Draft.makeWire([p5, p6])
Pipe1 = Arch.makePipe(Line1, 150)
Pipe2 = Arch.makePipe(Line2, 150)
Pipe3 = Arch.makePipe(Line3, 150)
FreeCAD.ActiveDocument.recompute()
Conn = Arch.makePipeConnector([Pipe1, Pipe2])
Conn2 = Arch.makePipeConnector([Pipe2, Pipe3])
FreeCAD.ActiveDocument.recompute()
Line4 = Draft.move(Line1, FreeCAD.Vector(-500, 1000, 0), copy=True)
Line5 = Draft.move(Line2, FreeCAD.Vector(-500, 1000, 0), copy=True)
Pipe4 = Arch.makePipe(Line4, 100)
Pipe5 = Arch.makePipe(Line5, 100)
FreeCAD.ActiveDocument.recompute()
Conn3 = Arch.makePipeConnector([Pipe4, Pipe5], radius=400)
