Message

The given model body is self-intersecting.

Severity

Low.

Detailed Description

The given model body is self-intersecting (for example, a RAD2d collection of segments translated as a single wireframe body). Calling applications are expected to handle the MODELTOPOLOGY_E_SELFINTERSECTION error code.

Possible Cause

For example (in the case of a 3-D wireframe model body translated from RAD2d), ill-defined values for a parametric symbol can cause self-intersection between edges.

Possible Impacts

None if the calling code (such as Structure semantics) is properly managing returned error codes from Geometry and Topology.

What You Should Do

For example (in the case of a 3-D wireframe model body translated from RAD2d), use a validation tool for parametric symbols to re-compute (hosted by Common2D/Symbol2D).
