Launching a Check Correction Method

You can create checks containing a correction method to make the invalid features fulfill the check. The correction method can be written in Knowledge Language or Visual Basic.

Note: This correction method is available only if you selected the Knowledge Language when writing the check body.

Before you begin: Import and open the 3dxml file located in KnowHowUIRuntime\CNext\startup\Knowledgeware\QCC samples\Sample001.
