Warning Flag: Break lines passes through a vertex

  • 1.  Warning Flag: Break lines passes through a vertex

    Posted 01-28-2022 10:54
    Hello all,

    I'm facing a problem since past two days. I have a created a surface from the break lines and there exists a problem wherein the surface doesn't adhere to the linework which I created.
    I did try out all the possible ways such as offset the line by 1/1000th of a foot and what not. 

    The error displayed is in the below screenshot.


    AS you can see in this screenshot, the surface doesn't align with the linework. 

    Kindly help me out. 

    Manjunath/Manny.

    I looked at your project and there are a lot of very obvious lines that cross each other in different elevations.
    Turn on all layers. Right-Click the surface in the project Explorer and "Select Members".
    In your case you actually only have to view Layer "MSE Takeoff Slopes". All layers on is helpful if you might have accidentally added linework that shouldn't be in that surface.
    All the lines you've added to that surface will be highlighted and you'll easily see things like this.

    Vertical Step in breakline, two nodes with same coordinate but different elevation.

    Higher corner crosses lower line

    Same here, unclean model

    no offset, corner under higher line


    And so on. There is no mystery to those flags, you have to go through all the errors and make sure that lines with different elevations, that are supposed to form the surface, don't cross each other. Best is to have 2D and 3D view open at the same time.

    Thank you Ronny. 


    I figured it out with colleague yesterday and found that the model was unclean and fixed it yesterday. 


    Thank you for helping out me.

    I'll soon post the final model image. 

    Thanks a lot.
