The Queries manager is a docking manager that displays all
queries in the current hydraulic model, including predefined, shared, and
hydraulic model queries. You can create, edit, or delete shared and hydraulic
model queries from within the Queries Manager, as well as use it to select all
elements in your model that are part of the selected query.
To open the Queries manager, click the View menu and select
the Queries command, press <Ctrl+5>, or click the Queries button
