Pro/Cabling routing issue

[fx4snowbird]

I'm pretty new to Pro/Cabling so I'm sure this is a simple problem to fix. I'm trying to route 2 cables through a P-clip using the 'Follow Axis' option, however it keeps routing only 1 cable through the axis and the other offset (see attached image). I have tried changing the routing from round to flat and even making a network route and tried using follow cable along that path, but nothing seems to work. I've been trying to figure this out for 3+ hours now and it's starting to get pretty frustrating

Anyone know the correct way to accomplish this?

can you make another axis in the clip that would be off-
center for the first cable to go through?

I suppose I could, but I was hoping that there was a way to do it within cabling so I wouldn't have to modify the part

thats how Pro/CABLE is supposta work.

There are work arounds that utilize techniqes for wires to route more nominally like route along an axis that is moved over sligthly offset from the centered one.... like 'csusie' says. You can also use top down design and rout along curves then snap on the connector after.

I always use top down design tricks but I like the first way to 'get her done'.

Instead of using "Along Axis" you could use a free point. If the routing isn't to your liking, you can Modify the Location by dragging it until you see what you like.

If my memory serves, you can center a bundle of different harnesses if you route using a network BUT you have to share the network between the two (or more) harnesses. Sharing networks can get hairy, but if you do it correctly then you should get a nice bundle going through the p-clamp as it should. Hope it works out...

I actually did get it to work once somehow using a network and just routing the 2 cables along it, but when I tried to repeat it, it didn't work. So, I figure if there is a way to make it centered, it would be using a network. I'll keep at it and see if anything works out.
