I have a question, and I tried to get answer reading Forum and Help pages, but couldn't figure the solution.


Line in Sketch is slightly off axis and may cause inaccuracies.

 

That is the warning I get when I do simple task of generating TopoSolid from .dwg Import

 

I am working in solid modeling programs for last 20 years, and i don't like to have a warning at the start of creating something. That thing can create who knows what problem down the road and might make irreparable damages. I just try every time to have "clean" file.

I understand that I can continue with my work and organize land, but.....

I tried to figure out what is actually "slightly of axis" but couldn't get to end result and cancel the warning. dwg was just a simple file with 7 splines representing 5m elevation increments

I would appreciate any input,

Veso

Hi Veso,

It's possible for lines to appear straight on the screen but still have a small angular misalignment. The error message you encountered is a warning that indicates some elements in your design are based on lines that are not perfectly aligned. These misalignments can range from very small angles of 1x(10^-9) to up to 0.2 degrees.

I would open the DWG and make sure that all lines are not misaligned. If everything looks correct then you would just need to ignore the error.

Thank you for the answer,

In this case all what is imported are splines, only 9 of them. Representing Terrain Elevations.
I checked for horizontal alignment, they are all perfect.
I would suggest to Revit Development Team to check the script.
Might be that Splines (and program consider them as Lines) "cause the problem"?!?
Because they are always - hmmm, misaligned.
