Draw Trench Network (Profile)
This command allows you to draw a branch of the trench network
structure as a sewer/pipe profile. There has to be a trench network
structure that has been created beforehand and its data is store in
a .sew file whose name is as same as the drawing name, otherwise
you would get an error message like "Error: no data in sewer
network file". The command first prompts you the Draw Sewer Network
Dialog. Select the Upstream and Downstream Struct that you want to
draw. If you want to draw the existing and final design surface, as
well as Strata Surfaces, toggle on Draw Existing Ground Surface,
Draw Final Design Surface, and Draw Strata Surfaces options. If
your profile is from upstream to downstream, then select the
Profile Direction as Downstream, otherwise Upstream. You can also
choose to save the profile data to a profile file. Click OK to
draw.
