Reset Bends

Updated 2 years ago by Adam Heon

When modelling with the advanced tools provided in eVolve Electrical, such as our optimize bends tools, the occasion may arise where a bend needs to be reverted to its original state (ex.. swapping types or special adjustments). Typically, this requires a lot of clicks and will cause some undesired moves and effects further down the run. With the reset bends tool, any eVolve smart bend family can be reverted back to its original state with just this one command, and to top it off, eVolve will prevent all of those undesired moves and changes down the run.

Using The Reset Bends Command

  1. From the eVolve ribbon, in the Conduit Bends panel, click Reset Bends
  2. From the drawing area, select the desired bends
  3. From the Options Bar, click 'Finish'

When modeling with eVolve Electricals advanced conduit tools, such as optimize bends and auto-couplings, we recommend using the following workflow: 1.) Model conduit runs utilizing our smart bend families. (Without adjusting them) 2.) Use Align Conduit when necessary for conduit spacing 3.) Optimize the bends using Consume Selected End and/or Consume Adjacent Ends commands and make any adjustments 4.) Use Align Couplings to align the bend couplings 5.) Use Place Couplings to place couplings along the run (We recommend using the "Change of Direction" option when using this workflow and using steps 2-5 section by section)
"For best results, we encourage users to only work with eVolve Bend Families."
