Question

Piping - Existing radius don't update after line stock replacing or updating

Our firm heavily uses Creo Piping features to produce true pipes by CNC machines. I'ts common to have a pipeline that changes its size during the design, eg. from 1/2" Dia. to 5/8" Dia. This change is quite easy by the command "modify pipe", everything but not the existing radii: why? You can't phisically bend a 5/8" pipe with 1/2" or, worse, 1/8" radius. If you want to set the new radius you have to identify and do it manually one by one.

 

Here follows the explaining PTC document

Please let all the parameters of the line stock affect the pipeline after replacing or updating.

 

A new config option will save a lot of time.
