You can adjust the general modelling data for all types of object on the grid views or property sheets.
Some types of data, such as tabular data, will be available only on the property sheets. Some other fields, mainly information or additional data fields, are available only on the grid views.
To open the grid view for editing data
- With the network open, click the
(Grid windows) icon on the Windows toolbar, then click the icon for one of the available windows:
- Use the tabs at the bottom of the view to select the appropriate grid for the object type you wish to edit.

Other editing tools
In general, you will change individual parameters for a network object in the normal way, using the grids or property sheets.
- Select a block of cells on a grid view, and make adjustments to the parameters of the selected cells. See Editing data in the network object grid views.
- Select several network objects and make changes to one or more parameters of the selected objects. The procedure for this is described in Adjusting parameters for selected objects.
- Select several nodes or links and adjust their x and y coordinates. Adjusting links will make changes to any intermediate points on a link containing bends. See Editing network object geometry.
There are also many specialist tools for making mainly geographical adjustments to specific object types.
