I got the failure "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" when running an iso (see attached). I can't seem to figure out why it's doing that. An ideas?
Are you generating ISO from PCF or from the model. Can you send us your model drawing for further testing and also let me know which release of Plant 3D you are working with.
I am having the same issue, creating an ISO with Plant3D 2013.

Vinod,
The issue is caused by a Victaulic coupling (from the victaulic catalog on the autodesk website) on the branch of a tee. Once I removed the vic (or moved it to the unassigned line number) the iso ran.
Also, somewhat related, I have an issue with the iso turing into an exploded view of the line because the weld dot is assigned to the connecing line and not to the line of the iso. This is also at the branch of a BW tee. Changeing which line the weld dot is assigned to "fixes" the iso.
See Attached...
Please, your help with the same problem.
Attached my 3d model.
See drawings in link below (within the whole model): Tuberia RW modificado.dwg and Tuberia de agua.dwg, as you can see it is no possible to generate isometric drawings because of this error: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
