Hello, I'm using Inv 8 pro, and I set up tube & pipe for producing handrailing (33.4x 26mm, Tube & bends, rad 116mm default, & steel welded pipe), I have a few questions about some problems I'm having,

1) How can I set up and produce a pipe run without the couplings, i.e show only tube & bends, at the moment I move the coupling node to the centre of the handrail standard ball to hide it & then turn of visibility.

2) Is there any way of turning of the work points enbloc (instead of going through each file), also 3D sketch showing rad dim.

3) Some of the bends appear distorted?, & changing the bend rad doesnt help

4) Also although the Tube & Pipe interactive help is helpful, is there anywhere else on the net to look for Tube & pipe tutorials.

Thanks in advance Amsmarle
 
I have sorted out most problems now, except for the nuisance work points, having to turn them off individually, also any tutorials that anyone may know of re Tube & Pipe

Regards
