Mode convert commands change a piping component from one mode to another mode. The existing component is deleted and replaced with a component in the new mode.

Many possibilities exist, such as:

  • 2D double line to 3D solids

  • 3D solids to 2D double line

  • 2D single line to 2D double line

  • 2D double line, flat to 2D double line, north

  • Converting to different planes

  • Rebuilding an existing component in the same mode or plane

The specification layer name determines the layer to delete and replace. This layer name is prepended with an underscore, such as _150. Objects on other layers (without an underscore in their names) are not changed.

You can convert from one plane to another by changing planes and converting the component mode.

Example

The following tee was drawn once, copied to three other locations, then converted to different planes.
