Color Coding Properties That Are Not In The List of Field Names

This topic explains how to color code elements by properties that aren’t in the pre-defined list of field names. For example; creating a property (Max full flow)/Capacity and color coding by it.

  1. Open the Conduit Flex Table and copy the columns Max Flow and Full Capacity and paste into Excel.
  2. Create a new column in Excel that calculates Max Flow/Full Capacity.
  3. In Bentley StormCAD , create a new User Data Extension e.g. Conduit Field- 1.
  4. Open FlexTables again and bring the Conduit Field-1 column into the FlexTable.
  5. Now Copy and Paste the Max Flow/Full Capacity column from the Excel spreadsheet into the Conduit Field-1 column.
  6. Close FlexTables.
  7. Now Color Code based on the Conduit Field-1 User Data Extension.
