Result
● If the start object is a pipe spec element or a pipe part from the pipe part catalog, the start
object is analyzed.
● If the start object is a pipe spec or a structure object from the pipe part catalog, the
subordinate objects are analyzed recursively. The time taken to complete the analysis
depends upon the number of objects.
● If the start object is the base object of a pipe spec element, the geometry is checked for
the nominal diameter range specified by the pipe spec.
● If the start object comes from the pipe part catalog, the geometry for the nominal diameter
range specified by the pipe part on the "Display for nominal diameter range" tab is checked.
● For each pipe part, a status is determined for each nominal diameter:
– Green check mark: The geometry of the pipe part has been calculated correctly.
– Red cross: The geometry of the pipe part has not been calculated correctly.
12.5.2 Interrupting, resuming, or canceling the analysis
Dependent upon how many objects are analyzed, the analysis may take some time.
Resuming the analysis
Click the "Resume" button to resume the analysis.
Canceling the analysis
To terminate the analysis prematurely, click on the "Cancel" button.
12.5.3 Viewing the result of the analysis in the 3D Editor
Requirement
A bulk analysis has been carried out, the "Create 3D" option was activated, and the "Unit
location" field was set.
Procedure
You can see the geometry of the pipe parts in the 3D view.
1. In the Navigator, select the object entered in the plugin in the "Unit location" field on the
"Bulk analysis" tab.
2. Select "Extra > 3D review > 3D view" from the menu.
