    Angry Pipe...

    So I just started drawing pipe on this new project and the attached picture shows the issue I'm having.. The problem is everytime I try to draw a simple 45˚ section of pipe, the transition is placed and it changes it to slightly less or more than 45˚. I tested this same situation on another computer with the same project and it works perfectly and in fact it processes the transition almost instantly (we both have the same speed system w/ 12 gigs of ram) so it seems to be a setting on my own computer. What could be causing this? I have tried changed the type of fittings it puts on the pipe as well as trying multiple different types of pipe and every one does the same thing.

    <edit> I have also checked to make sure there is no slope selected when drawing pipe, and it happens both in section and plan view. The image is the pipe in plan view

    Are the pipe lookup tables correctly referenced in the Revit.ini file on the machnie with the issue?

    Ya it was the pipe look up tables. I had forgotten this machine was brought into our office from a portland office and it was trying to point to locations on their server! That solved the issue, thanks
