  • Dear Anggie,

    In Flow conditions tab, creating a water level is similar to creating a surface. You can use either the command line with the coordinates of the water level (parentheses are optional). For example:

    waterlevel (0 0 3) (2 0 2) (5 0 2) (7 0 1.5) (8 0 1.5) (8 12 1.5) (7 12 1.5) (5 12 2) (2 12 2) (0 12 3)

    or use the Import water level icon on the side toolbar that allows for importing a simple text file containing the coordinates of the water level. For instance:

    0 0 3
    2 0 2
    5 0 2
    7 0 1.5
    8 0 1.5
    8 12 1.5
    7 12 1.5
    5 12 2
    2 12 2
    0 12 3

    Both options will give the same result.
