Was wondering if anyone else had run into this problem when placing taps.
As an example, I'll use 1/2".
If you are going to show a 1/2" x-body gate valve being threaded into a 1/2" gauge valve, I can't seem to place a tap unless there is a 1/2" pipe listed in the specs. 1/2" nipples don't affect anything.
Or, as another example, a strainer with a 1/2" drain on the bottom. I can't seem to tap unless there is 1/2" pipe listed in the specs.
If the 1/2" pipe is there, all is good. Taps work. No 1/2" pipe listed, the taps won't work.
The reason we don't want 1/2" pipe listed in the spec is to eliminate users from putting 1/2" pipe where there needs to be a nipple.
I realize this is probably by design, for the tap command to work only with pipe, but was just curious if anyone else has run into as well.
