The area of interference is targeted with an ellipse. A vertical line, starting at the
center of the ellipse and drawn upward, is flanked by vertically oriented labels
designating the invert elevation at the crossing point and the pipe name. The
Align/Run Interferences command uses the label settings established in the
Pipes Settings Editor dialog box. If a pipe run structure is coincident with an
alignment, the area of interference is also targeted with an ellipse and
appropriate labels.
If an area of interference is found, prompts display showing the run name,
alignment name, and number of interferences found.
