Hi All,

I have just started to learn Capture and finding it mostly intuitive except for one thing...Truss.

Whenever I am moving a piece of truss about it tries to snap to every piece of truss except the one I want - is there a way to select the truss i want it to connect to?

Example - I have 2 x 4m truss, one above the other and i need to add a corner to the top truss, however, everytime i try it snaps to the bottom truss.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Welcome to the world of Capture! :)

Does this happen if you try connecting the the corner truss to the top truss in Sectional View?

Ctrl 3 will switch you to Sectional View in one of your 2D windows.

Best,
Johnny

Thank you John, managed to do it using that tip and hiding a couple of bits.

Much appreciated
