When applying DOT design standards, warnings and errors both tell the user that DOT design standards has been violated. I do not understand the need to differentiate them. Can someone please explain the difference between an Error and a Warning in ORD's Civil Message Center please?
Thank you.
Civil Message Center
The Civil Message Center consists of four types of messages:
MicroStation - duplicates all messages that MicroStation shows in its own message center
Errors - displays severe problems found in the Civil tools that need attention
Warnings - displays less severe errors that should be investigated
Messages - displays informational messages about the Civil tools
Hey David: The difference in Errors and Warnings is:
For design standards:
For geometry in genera: An error is logged if you change the geometric element or its reference elements in such a way that the feature can no longer solve. In this case, the geometry will also display on screen as a heavy dashed red line.
For drainage design:
Hope this helps.
