RE: Watergems/sewergems/civilstorm to Navisworks ???
MPachlhofer
Vishal, WaterGEMS can export to a DXF file, EPANET file (.INP), and if you have the i-model publishing engine installed, a .DGN file. The i-model publishing engine can be downloaded with any Hydraulics and Hydrology product from the download page. This…

RE: watercad/gem entering elevation at each node
Akshaya Niraula
Here's one way to do it and you will need ArcGIS for this. (These steps are from my memory so you may have to adjust the steps or wording) 1) Add your DXF or DWG to ArcGIS/ArcMAP 2) Save the Annotation layer and Point to shapefile format. Right click…

StormCAD: Problems viewing my background layers
roman77
I brought in a few dxf files I created from dgn files into StormCAD as background layers but I'm not able to see them displayed on the drawing screen. Does anyone have an idea of why this is happening? Thanks.

Re: Background shapefile with streetnames not showing
Mal Sharkey
As a bit of background, the stand-alone version of WaterGEMS is not intended to have the same GIS or CAD power as the platorms WaterGEMS can run on (MicroStation, ArcGIS, AutoCAD), so for background layer power it is best to work on one of those plaftorms…

Re: error message on .dxf background
Jesse Dringoli
Hello Serge, Technical problems like this are best handled through Technical Support, but there are a few basics things to check. This error is generic, so it could indicate any number of problems with the DXF file. A good first step would be to…

Re: Problem when using CAD data to generate network modell using WaterCAD V8i
Mal Sharkey
Ideally you would set a label for the junctions (and pipes, etc.) in the CAD file, but unfortunately DXF files (the CAD file format currently supported by ModelBuilder) aren't very good at storing attributes along with the lines and points. There are…
