Didn't like that. Let's try this again. Okay.
Now sometimes you might get an error like this Again, this is Revit. Sometimes it does these things. So what we can do is click on the sprinkler.
Let's try draw pipe One inch it does not like that. So let's figure out what's going on here We are at this sprinkler here. Aha.
It looks like this is slightly off Okay so We'll delete that pipe and we'll move This we'll have to align it. So let's go to our detail line Again, I'm glad you're seeing this because this is part of the process. It's not always perfect Now let's take this and move to our detail line Okay, we can delete it go back to our sprinkler draw pipe one inch All right, and we're back in business, let's keep going If that happens again, we know it's probably just off By the over configuration before it gets to the down part of the arm over Looks like we've got the same thing going on here.
This might be the case With all of these sprinklers here so we can take care of that Easily enough. Here's what we're going to do. Let's go to all these and Delete those portions of the drops Again, this is a real-world example of what could very easily Happen while on a project.

There's always a way to fix it So it's nothing to worry about okay, let's take our detail line again go to the center of This wrinkler here And we'll draw all the way across make sure we're staying horizontal Now all we need to do is we'll move these over configurations to the center line And we can continue Okay much better
