    Default Pipe connection visablity

    I have a hydronic heat pump family. The piping for it is available on both sides and so in the family there is a check box to turn which ever one on and the visibility is connected to it so that good. However I can't seem to figure out how to make the pipe connections behave this way also. All of the pipe connections always show up which is really annoying and difficult to click the right one!

    Default Re: Pipe connection visablity

    Connectors within a family cannot have their visibility controlled. In the families I've developed I nest a generic model family that is just a small cylinder, the face of which will host the pipe connector. This family is able to be rotated and moved around so that if I want to move the connections to the other side of the equipment I can do so.
