Hello Shabeer

In PV Elite, look for an icon called: 'Add a clip'. This icon sits near the right hand end of the tool bar. You cannot put a clip on the head (only on a cylinder). You can only put a pipe attachment on the head, as WRC 107 has no provision for rectangular section clips on a head.

Dear all,

I have found a problem on pvelite WRC "quick calculation screen".
When adding a circular clip, even if pvelite requires clip dimensions in millimeters, during the QUICK analisys it considers them as inches.
So the clip diameter, in mm, is multiplied again by 25.4 during the analisys.

When performing the complete analisys of the vessel, this problem does not occur.
