Problem:

Stress Isometric reported table values are not the highest value in the AutoPIPE model, why? 

Example:

When i tick the Stress summary in Table option it results with just code check for one point in segment. In addition it seems that the program plots the envelope of code stress but prepared in wrong way, instead how highest stresses it plots lowest stresses in range.

Solution:

The problem maybe related to local settings on the computer. In some countries (ex. Poland) comma are used to separate the numbers from decimal fractures. Reset back to decimals and the reported table values are correct.
