Customers meters association in the juctions but considering the closest pipe

In old WaterGEMS V8i It could associate Customers Meters in the juctions but first checking the closest pipe. I mean, the software get the closest pipe then considering the distance of the start and stop node it get associated with the closest node. In the newest version I can't find a way of doing it. I can just choose between associating with the closest pipe or the closest node. It doesn't have the same option that old V8i. I prefer using junctions rather than pipe when associating the customers meters because I doesn't have problem when deleting, spliting, adding new elements, etc.

Someone have an idea how can I associate the customers meters in the juctions but considering just the start node or stop node of the closest pipe in the newest version of WaterGEMS?

Thank you in advance.

  • Mainly It's the known defect # 1004540 that i think is not yet resolved. For example, when I split pipes in the base scenario sometimes it automatically reassociate the associated pipes. But sometimes it doesn't. But the main problem is that for all child scenarios the associated element get lost and I have do run loadbuilder again. It's kind annoying. That's why I'm looking for a way to associated directly to the junctions but considering the closest pipe for best efficiency. And also I don't want to give up using customers meter by point load data.
