Error messages

[DougM]

I keep getting these two messages associated with this one plan file when opening the file. I have gone over it with a fine tooth comb and can't find the faults to which is causing the error messages. Any suggestions as to finding/tracking down the problems would be appreciated.
It's a very simple bathroom remodel so there is not much to it......this is more a nuisance than anything.

Thanks,
Doug

Hi Doug
My guess would be the cabinet with the sink..=bathroom..
there is a check box=don't show this again Same as turning up the radio in your car to fix that noise..
I'd be happy to take a quick look for you..

Hi Allen, yeah that's what I keep doing.......... it's one of those things ya just want to know whats causing it. I'm sure it's in the 1/4" thick polyline to slab tile verneers I have on the walls. I was just wondering if there was some magic button or somewhere a setting that would highlight the problem area. Similar to when roof planes don't meet ya get a circle indicating where the problem is.

Doug,
I don’t have a magic button but I have thought. If you have old plans in your archive you may be able to go back to an earlier plan and find one that does not have the error message. Once you have a clean plan review the differences between the good plan and the first one that displayed the error message. This should help you pinpoint what areas of the plan you changed between versions and narrow your search for the problem. I have used this troubleshooting method successfully in the past to track down elusive problems. Hope this helps.

Hi Bob, thanks and that way works great, I have actually done that a few times, Ye ole' process of illimination. Unfortunatly this was a very small project done in about 2 hours so there is only one plan, No revisions. I think I may have found it......using a thin slab for tile, with a hole in it for where the window and door is, I made the hole 1/2" thick instead of 1/4" (same as the slab) I changed the hole thickness to 1/4" and seems to have done the trick.
I used to use the dif thickness method in Autocad 3-D modeling years ago, it was quicker to locate (when accuracy wasn't critical) a solid to be subtracted from primitives.
Thanks though for the responce.
