Hello,

I have a question about what seems as a graphic bug on one of my 90 degree bends. The bend in question is not being represented with bend box checked.

Is there an underlying reason for this or is this just a graphical bug I should ignore ?

Thanks

A bend will only be drawn when the second half of the bend is next sequential element.

I.e. 10-20-30 will draw a bend if 20-30 follows after 10-20, and bend is applied on 10-20.

However, 10-20-30 will not draw a bend in any of the following cases:

1.
10-20 (bend)
100-110
20-30

2.
20-10 (bend)
20-30

3.
10-20 (bend)
30-20

etc.

Yes, I know this.

I found and corrected the error. There was a phantom element inserted after element 1340-1350 with TO node left blank. I must have clicked INSERT ELEMENT twice and only filled out the second new element info, somehow succeeding in continuing the model with element 1350-1360.

Thanks for your feedback!
