Errors
| Info |
|---|
Since project refinements are written in custom scripts, you may need to update/add some fields and parcels to match those in the script. |
Unless all errors are addressed, either in the setup steps or in your custom script, the message shown below will be shown in the main viewport, and you will not be able to proceed with the project setup:
“There is no extension loaded, or the extension does not gather inputs from this benches form.“
...
Examples of some error messages, with recommendations on how to fix them, are given below. In the case of other errors that you can not solve yourself, you can contact Alastri support.
