Trench & Pipeline Module FAQ

Pipeline Extraction

1.[Warning] "Can not switch handler, please use the space bar to stop first"

Cause: During automatic pipeline extraction, the mode cannot be switched. You need to pause the auto-growth with the space bar first.
Solution: Press the space bar to pause auto-growth.

2.[Warning] "There is horizontal reference plane, Please close it to ensure function works correctly"

Cause: A horizontal section is currently active, which may cause errors in pipeline extraction. You need to exit the horizontal section function first.
Solution: Exit the horizontal section.

1.[Warning] "No centerline object"

Cause: In batch mode, the selected line layer contains no line vectors; in selection mode, no line vector is selected.
Solution: In batch mode, select a layer that contains line vectors; in selection mode, make sure a line vector is selected.

1.[Warning] "The currently active project does not have a design longitudinal axis yet!"

Cause: The current cross-section project does not yet have a design longitudinal axis.
Solution: Create the design longitudinal and transverse axes first.

2.[Error] "Unable to open raster: ..."

Cause: The raster image is corrupted, causing failure to add it to the project.
Solution: Regenerate the raster image.

1.[Warning] "No trench centerline detected. Please extract the groove centerline first"

Cause: Automatic trench volume calculation requires a trench centerline, but the current trench centerline layer contains no vector lines.
Solution: Extract the trench centerline manually or semi-automatically first.

1.[Warning] "Wrong layer, please select pipe line"

Cause: Special key points can only be added on the pipeline centerline. Selecting a line vector from another layer will trigger this warning.
Solution: Select the pipeline centerline to add key points.

2.[Warning] "Wrong layer, please select pipe key point layer"

Cause: This function only supports editing point vectors within the pipeline key point layer. Selecting point vectors from another layer will trigger this warning.
Solution: Select point vectors within the pipeline key point layer.

1.[Warning] "Failed to open the file!" or "Vector file does not meet the condition"

Cause: The supported vector file must contain line vectors. If the file is corrupted or the vectors inside are not line vectors, this warning will appear.
Solution: Check whether the vector file is valid and contains line vectors. If the file is intact and confirmed to contain line vectors, please contact us by email.
