About Suppressing and Resuming Pipe Segments
When you route pipelines, you can suppress or resume one or more pipe segments to modify the pipeline trajectory.
* 
The pipe segments that you want to suppress must belong to the same pipeline that you are currently routing.
When you suppress pipe segments you can also suppress the associated pipe solids and insulation.
Fittings of type break, cut, or elbow, that are placed on the ends of a suppressed pipe segment are automatically changed to type "on end".
All the suppressed components are resumed during the resume operation.
You cannot resume a suppressed pipe segment if its end is used by a new segment due to routing.
You cannot suppress pipe segments that have insulation, branch points, pipeline labels, or spools.
