there is a problem that i try to interpolate a surface with spline, if i set the work space to Mydata folder, the result will not come out. but if i use default workspace, the result will come out. this make me very confused.[ATTACH=CONFIG]27188[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]27189[/ATTACH]

i think that i should set workspace to one folder that i created, so i can easily find  data stored in the folder.

Hi Yang,

When using a folder as workspace your rasters will be written as Esri grid files. Using Esri grid files comes with a number of restrictions:

Esri Grid format

The name of an Esri Grid format raster has more specific restrictions:


  • The maximum number of characters is 13.


  • It cannot have spaces.


  • It cannot use special characters other than underscore ( "_" ).


  • For tools that output a Grid Stack, the stack name cannot have more than 9 characters.


  • The total length of the name for a Grid and its path cannot be more than 128 characters.

For one I don't think it likes the space in the sub folder "3d book" of your workspace path.
