Is there a null node in the drainage utility?

Question

I am trying to add a break in a conduit without adding a full structure. The intent is to have a break in the pipe so I can have a vertical bend but every node type draws in a full structure.

 The availability of a null node would depend on the configuration you are using. I don't believe that either of the Bentley delivered configurations provide this. I do build them into the configurations we develop for our clients. That is usually a simple cross in plan and a sphere in 3D.

I would use a transition in this case. You can set the 3D symbology for the transition so that it's not noticeable - for example by using a cell that models a small ball - which is what the feature definition for a new conflict node does, so you could use that cell and adjust the scale.
