Details on Reports

Information about the Reports dialog.

The Reports dialog collects all messages (reports) that have occurred in the current drawing so far. Reports can be messages about errors, warnings, or notes. You can use the Report dialog to locate the origin of the message in the drawing them in order to subsequently analyse and, if necessary, correct the cause.

Reports are messages of different categories that can originate from different areas and functions of the program:

  • Errors, warnings or notes that were detected during detection or calculation of pipe or duct network calculations,

  • Errors that occurred during collision checks in the Design 3D Pipe & Power and 3D Ventilation modules,

  • Errors that occurred during the open end test in the 3D Pipe & Power and 3D Ventilation modules,

  • Errors that occurred during the check of missing position numbers in the 3D Pipe & Power module.
