PCF to Iso terminates with an unexplained error

[Anonymous]

The attachment contains a PCF that imports correctly to PIPE, but fails to import to Iso.

The log doesn't state what's failing.

I noticed that your PCF missing weld between pipe and elbow.
Would you please let me know where the pcf is from?
Is it created from Plant 3D?
If so, It would be great if you could provide us the original 3d model.
Then we could take a look later.

Thanks for your response.

The PCF has been generated by our application that has features of importing PCF files from Plant3D and the reverse.

I'll work on it.

followed up and modified the application. The pcf (zipped within the attachment) dutifully brackets the elbows with welds.

Plant3D still aborts the import.

Hi there em9VTLD,

Seeing as welds were missing, it sounds like your application might not be writing out the correct PCF data or format.

You should probably review the PCF documentation made freely available by Intergraph to validate the PCF output of your application.

I wonder where were they missing missing, as I've added those bracketing the elbows.

Thanks @dgorsman - seems it got truncated.

Let's try this again:
