I don't remember any options for setting precut lengths.

Are you talking about when you report this information on a drawing? If so, you can simply add the [.0] to the end of the reporting parameter so it rounds to zero decimal places.  Probably not really what you are asking, but thought I would throw it out there anyways.

Thanks for the reply.

I am looking for predetermined length increments that piping will take into account when routing the design. Similar to the acceptable bend radii and angle.

Not sure if these will help but there are parameters for Spec Driven and Non-Spec Driven design that set the minimum and maximum segment lengths.

Non-Spec Parameters:

MIN_STRAIGHT_LENGTH

MAX_OVERALL_LENGTH

Spec Parameters (dialog box):

Max Overall Length

Max Segment Length

Min Segment Length
