You can override normal pipe routing mode using the keyboard CTRL key to route either a 2D or 3D skew.

Create a 2D Skew that Runs N/S and U/D

  1. In the Detail window, click once to place the end point for the last orthogonal section of pipe.

    2D Skew Step1

  2. While pressing CTRL, click some distance away from the end point of the orthogonal section of pipe to create the N/S skew component.

    2D Skew Step 2

  3. Release the CTRL key, and click again in the same plane but some distance away from the previous point to place the end point of the skew and the U/D skew component.

    SPIso DIA 2D Skew Step 3

  4. Click in the Detail window again to place the end point of the next orthogonal section of pipe and continue routing.

    2D Skew Step 4

Create a 3D Skew that Runs N/S and U/D

  1. Use the same technique as when routing a 2D skew to place the first two skew components.

  2. Release the CTRL key when you click to place the third skew component.
