OpenRoads Designer Drainage Model Conduit Inverts

Question

Hello All, 
 
 I started my drainage model by placing the network without adjusting any of the conduit inverts. However, when I want to change an invert whether it is the upstream or downstream invert, it does not change and will change back to the original elevation it had. Both stop and end inverts are set to True, so I am not sure why they are not wanting to adjust. Any insight on how I can go about changing my invert elevations would be helpful. Thank you, very much appreciated.

check properties for the pipes. "Set Invert to Start" and "Set Invert to Stop". If these are true then the pipe will always match the invert of the node to which it is connected. In order to manually override the pipe invert first set to False, then enter the new invert. 
 Related properties are: 
 
 Design start invert - if true then whenever you compute a design scenario will recompute the invert elevation based on the design alternative parameters. 
 Design stop invert - ditto except for the end of the conduit. 
 Set these to false to lock the invert to your user defined elevation.

I set both inverts, the start and stop to false and they did get resolved, thanks Robert!
