"Error analysis for 3D objects" plugin
12
12.1 Purpose
Missing attributes or erroneous entries in attributes can lead to the geometry of a pipe part
being calculated incorrectly or not at all. This can have the following consequences:
●
The pipe part is not exported to PDMS
● The pipe part cannot be displayed in the 3D view or is displayed incorrectly
● Reports are incomplete or empty
The "Error analysis for 3D objects" plugin checks whether the geometry of pipe parts can be
calculated.
The plugin offers you the following analysis options:
● Analysis of an individual pipe part
All of the attributes required for geometry calculation are analyzed for a nominal diameter.
The analysis returns a list containing detailed information about the attributes.
● Analysis of several pipe parts at once
The attributes required for geometry calculation are analyzed for all nominal diameters at
once. This allows you to compare the geometry results for the pipe parts directly.
You can view the results of the calculation in a 3D Editor.
12.2 Calling a plugin
Procedure
Select "Plugins > Basic > Error analysis for 3D objects" from the menu bar.
Result
● The plugin is opened in the working area on the "Error analysis for 3D objects" tab.
● The "Detail evaluation" tab is active when the plugin opens.
