To highlight a drainage network
Highlight an entire drainage network connected to a pipe, pipe-connector or other end structure.
You can build out a drainage network anywhere and use Highlight Drainage Network to show its full extent. The highlighted drainage network shows the extent of the network analyzed and re-sized by Size Drainage Network, the fine-tuning tool.
Note: The Size Drainage Network tool comes in two versions:
- The standalone version, , re-sizes structures belonging to a single network. Highlight Drainage Network works especially well with this version, identifying the extent of the single network.
- The component road-based version (on the road's right-click, context menu) resizes all the structures along the selected component road. This operation may affect a larger extent than you want to work with.
- Click Analyze Drainage (Highlight Drainage Network).
- Follow in-canvas instructions: select a pipe, connector or other end structure and press enter.
