Create single line diagram using schematics

[NageshwarRao]

Hi,

We need to create single line diagram for electric network which is in PGDB/SDE, especially for electric substations. Please let me know the procedure to generate single diagram for electric network...I have searched in the help, but could not find it. Please help.

Below is sample code which i have convert to c# which help us to generate Schematic Diagram On Web... for more help contact on sandeep.midgule@gmail.com

The answer to this depends on what version of software you are using and what your definition of a single line diagram is.  We see lots of requests for single line diagrams, but most requirements are not the same.  Usually you simply configure a diagram template that has a lot of node reduction rules to simplify the network and then run a smart tree algorithm to get the straight line look.  But, we would need much more information (an example would be best) of what you are trying to accomplish and what version you are using.

Hi,

I am trying to create the schematic diagram of selected features on the map using the code. I am getting the below error when calling the GenerateDiagram of StandartBuilder.

But the same code in the Desktop is running fine.

ERROR:

Message      : Exception from HRESULT: 0x80040221
From           : ESRI.ArcGIS.Schematic
Stack Trace : at ESRI.ArcGIS.Schematic.ISchematicBuilder.GenerateDiagram(String diagramName, ISchematicDiagramContainer DiagramContainer, IPropertySet pPropertySet, ISchematicBuilderContext pContext, ITrackCancel cancelTracker)

I have checked the innerException and found below code:

_ComPlusExceptionCode: -532459699 and HResult error code : -2146233088


Thanks for any help.
