Drainage and Utilities CONNECT Edition Help

Creating a Graph

You can graph computed values, such as flow and velocity. To create a graph:

  1. Compute your Drainage and Utilities network.
  2. If necessary, use Shift+click to select multiple elements.
  3. Right-click an element and select Graph. The Graph dialog box opens (see "Graph Dialog Box" ).
  4. If needed, use the Scenarios drop-down list (for more information, see "Scenario Manager" ) to select check boxes to include different or multiple scenarios in the graph. Click Refresh after you make any changes, so the graph displays your changes.
  5. If needed, use the Elements drop-down list to select check boxes to include different or multiple element properties in the graph. Click Refresh after you make any changes, so the graph displays your changes. Drainage and Utilities assumes initial flow—flow at time 0—in all networks to be 0; thus, graphs of flow begin at 0 for time 0.
  6. If needed, click Chart Settings to change the display of the graph. For more information, see "Graph Manager" .
  7. If you want your graph to display over more time (for example, it displays a 24-hour time period and you want to display a 72-hour period), click Home > Calculation Options and change Total Simulation Time in the Property Editor (for more information, see "Editing Attributes in the Property Editor" ).
