If analyzer errors cannot be resolved
Make a backup copy of your design.
Delete each line one at a time, and repeat for each view.
Choose menu Edit > Undo to add one line back to the drawing.
Choose menu Job > Price/Analyze and see if the design passes.
If the design passes, continue undoing deletions one-by-one until you find the line(s) that are causing the issue.
If the lines that are causing the error are essential, change them to Comments to Machinist via the line type droplist and describe the situation.
If the analyzer or workspace takes too long or freezes
If your design has a large number of repeated features or line segments, change all lines but one to Comments to Machinist and add a comment specifying to machine all Comments to Machinist lines relative to the one line.
