Downhill Strings in 12d Model (including new V14 features)
In our recent Training Webinar entitled ‘Downhill Strings (including new V14 features)’, Owen Thornton of 12d Queensland discussed the Downhill Strings option in 12d Model, used for processing Super strings with z-values. The option has been significantly updated for 12d Model 14, and these changes were highlighted as part of a complete demonstration of the option.
In addition, for drainage designers, the interrelationship with the Utility String Editor was discussed, to modify the properties of the overland flow strings created by Downhill Strings.
NEW in 12d Model 14
Downhill Strings has a new look!
- Now with standard source-boxes.
- Manually drawn strings (across roads, culvert connections, etc) now only need to be drawn once. They can be specified as Extra Input to be processed and joined (but not downhilled).
- Vertex data set by Utility String Editor on previous downhill strings, can be saved and re-applied to the new downhill strings.
- Much less work to do when designs change and new downhill strings are required.
Owen also talked us through the four new tabs in the Downhill Strings panel.
Downhill Strings also has:
- A new toolbar icon on the new Water
- A new location on the new and improved Water
