Network Object / Results Grid Windows

ICMLive Operator Client provides a number of spreadsheet style grid windows listing objects in the network.

Each column in the grid contains data for a particular field or result, with each row in the grid listing the values for a single object.

The grid windows do not always show all the data for an object. For example, tabular data about an object cannot be displayed. To view all data for an object use the appropriate Object Properties Window.

The grid windows in ICMLive Operator Client are divided into the following sets:

Window	Access
Summary Window	Overview Page - Summary option of the Window menu.
Node Results Window	Network Page- Node results window option of the Results menu.
Link Results Window	Network Page - Link results window option of the Results menu.
Subcatchment Results Window	Network Page - Subcatchment results window option of the Results menu.
Summary Results Window	Network Page - Summary results window option of the Results menu.
Alerts Window	Network Page - Alerts option of the Window menu. Note: The Alerts Window is slightly different from the other grid windows as it relates to alerts and not network objects. However it is mentioned in this topic as it is a grid window.

Note: Results element 2D objects are also displayed in the Results Element 2D Grid Results window. However, these objects relate to mesh elements and can only be accessed from the 2D Mesh Element Histogram dialog (not from a menu). The information included in this topic for customising and restoring the grid layout, and for the autofiltering of grid data, also applies to the Results Element 2D grid.

Opening network object / Results grid windows

To display a grid window, click on the tab with its name on the Network page (or the Overview page) or select the option with its name from the Window or the Results menu.

A tick () in front of a window name in the Window dropdown menu indicates that the window is open in ICMLive Operator Client.

Example of Grid Window

Displaying field properties

Hover over a column header with the cursor to display a tooltip showing the following information about the related object data field:

• Field name
• Database field name
• Data type
• Size / Length
• Precision (if not null)

Displaying property sheets

Display the Object Properties Window for a particular network object simply by double clicking to the left of the row for that object.

Alternatively, right click on the row and select Properties from the popup menu.

Customising grid layout and appearance

A number of options change the layout and appearance of the grid. Some layout changes can be saved, (for example column ordering), and used as the default layout when the grid type is opened in the future.

Adjust column width	To adjust the width of a column, drag the divider line on the right of the column header. The cursor will change as shown when correctly positioned over the column divider.
Change column order	To change the column order, select a column and drag it to a new position. If the position is valid, the dividing line between columns where the dragged column will be inserted turns red. The picture shows a valid drop position for the selected DS Node ID column. If the position where you want to drop is invalid the cursor will be displayed.
Freeze columns	Columns can be frozen at the left hand side of the grid so that they are visible at all times. Select one or more columns and choose Freeze columns from the context menu. The columns are moved to the left hand side of the grid. The boundary between frozen and scrollable columns is marked with an extra thick line. When you scroll the grid sideways, the frozen columns do not move. To unfreeze all frozen columns, choose Unfreeze all columns from the context menu.

Restoring the default layout

It is possible to restore the original default layout for all the grids at once by selecting Reset toolbars and windows from the Tools menu. The size and position of dockable windows (and toolbars) will be reset to the ICMLive Operator Client default settings. The changes take effect from the next time the application is restarted.

Autofiltering grid data

Data can be autofiltered in network grid window columns, allowing the display of rows of data based on the content of cells and conditions applied to them.

See the Filtering Grid Data topic for more information on how to autofilter column data in grid windows.
