Hello, this is Sergio from Lebanon, your loyal Bentley client!
I am reaching out to ask you a few questions regarding SewerGEMS and ArcMap;
1)I have designed a collection system on SewerGEMS; how can I open a SewerGEMS file inside ArcMap? If you can please guide me into this and let me know everything, I should be aware of
2)Do you have any knowledge regarding the upstream tracing feature in ArcMap? If I want to perform an upstream tracing analysis for my model but inside of ArcMap...
I would really appreciate any help I would receive,
Waiting to hear from you,
Kind Regards
Sergio Aoun

My colleague suggested a workaround here, you could draw a legend either in MicroStation or AutoCAD and export that to dxf which you could then insert as a background in SewerGEMS. (View > Backgrounds > New File).

Hello Sergio,
Could you please specify if you are looking for to insert symbology legend in SewerGEMS standalone platform or SewerGEMS for ArcMAp platform?
In SewerGEMS, you can right click on any symbology to insert the legend in the drawing area. However there is separate legend for separate symbology, not like shown in your screenshot.
Could you please elaborate your requirement, so if required we can log a feature request.
How to insert a legend into the drawing pane?
Automatically get the layers in the ArcMap or ArcGIS platform to populate the OpenFlows icon symbology
Thank you so much for your kind assistance, as usual, Jesse! It really means a lot!
One last question regarding the display in SewerGEMS of a model,
If you can see the model's snapshot, how can I similarly display the symbology annotation on the left of my model as you can see in the snapshot? This means a legend schedule indicating the symbol of the manhole, outfall, pump, pipe diameters, and so on...
I would really appreciate your help!
Waiting to hear from you

You will need to first integrate SewerGEMS with a compatible version of ArcMap (see this). Once using SewerGEMS for ArcMap, you can add an existing model from the SewerGEMS Hydraulic Model menu > Add Existing Hydraulic Model. See the "Opening an existing WaterGEMS or SewerGEMS model..." from the FAQ page here:

I cannot speak for any ArcMap tools but the SewerGEMS querying tools are also available when working in SewerGEMS for ArcMap.
