Lines to Ducts

This function converts Model lines into Ducts and adds fittings at the crossings. This tool is helpful in cases where you have files (.dwg, dxf, other formats) where ducts are drawn as lines and you want to convert them.

Workflow:

    If you have selected one or more Model lines, the tools use these lines to execute.

    If you haven’t selected one or more Model lines, you are able to select those elements when executing the tool.

   After executing the tool. All attached and crossed lines are converted into Placeholder ducts with minimal dimensions. The original lines are deleted (Tip: 1 Undo recovers the deleted lines and keeps the newly created Ducts). 

Remarks: This tool creates new Placeholder ducts: make sure you have included the following Duct types according to the Witas template (see project settings)
