Use this dialog box to create a pressure network from a drawing object.
You can select one of the following entity types in a drawing and create a pressure network from it: line, arc, 2D or 3D polyline, feature line, alignment, or survey figure.
- Network Name
-
Specifies the name of the pressure network. Each pressure network must have a unique name.
-
-
Opens the Name Template dialog box, where you can modify the pressure network naming template.
- Network Description
-

Opens the Pressure Network Layers dialog box, where you can assign various views of the pressure network components to specific layers in the drawing.
- Surface Name
-
Specifies the surface associated with this pressure network.
- Alignment Name
-
Specifies the alignment associated with this pressure network.
Elevation Reference
- Depth Of Cover
- Specifies that the pressure network is set at an elevation below the reference surface. This value is measured between the reference surface and the outside top of the pipe. Enter the elevation in the Depth Of Cover box.
- Use Vertex Elevations
-
When this option is selected, the elevations of any vertexes along the selected entity are used to set the elevations of the parts created in the network. The following options are available: Outside Top, Crown, Centerline, Invert, Outside Bottom.
- Erase Existing Entity
