Hello everyone,
Does anybody know of a method to rotate pipe fittings to match the pipe direction? The pipe fittings are being placed by dynamo as well, I can rotate the horizontal pipe fittings to match the pipe vector no problem as seen below
But when it comes to vertical pipes, the fitting does not rotate to match the pipe vector
This is the rotation method that is working for the horizontal pipes at the moment:
Does anyone have any suggestions or advice on how to rotate these fittings on the vertical pipes?
Thanks very much!

Hi all,
I have run a series of tests to isolate the vertical pipes in my project. For this test I have only 1.
I then use the “Element.Location” node to get access to the curve that makes up the pipe. From there, i measure 6000mm along the curve and place a point (This will be used to place the pipe fitting).
Then I get the vector of the curve of the pipe which I want to use to rotate the pipe fitting to match the direction of the pipe.
I place a family using the point, and then i rotate it …
Closing this thread accordingly.
