The Feature Objects menu becomes available when the Conceptual model, or Map model, is active. The menu has the following commands:

  • Build Polygons

Creates polygons out of closed arcs.

  • Vertices↔Nodes

Switches selected vertices to nodes and vise verse.

  • Vertices → Nodes

Switches selected vertices to nodes.

  • Nodes → Vertices

Switches selected nodes to vertices.

  • Redistribute Vertices...

Redistributes the amount of vertices on a selected arc using a user input value for spacing.

  • Create Arc Group

Creates the select multiple arcs as one. All arcs are still separate arcs, but one group.

  • Reverse Arc Direction

Arcs have a direction that follows the path that they were made. Direction is important with some parameters and need to be consistent throughout the model.

  • Clean...

Selecting this command brings up the Clean dialog. See Clean Command for more information.

  • Find Feature Object...

Select a feature object using the object ID.

  • New Grid Frame

Creates a new grid frame object in the project explorer.

  • Activate Cells in Coverage(s)

After creating a coverage that defines the model boundary and creating a grid, just the cells that are in the active coverage with remain active.

  • Arc(s) → Cross Section

Opens the Arcs → Cross Sections dialog. See Arc → Cross Sections for more information.

  • Map → TIN

This command creates a TIN using each polygon in the coverage.

  • Map → 2D Mesh

This command creates a 2D Mesh on the interior of all of the polygons in the current coverage. See Map to 2D Mesh for more information.

  • Map → 2D Grid

Opens the Create Grid dialog. See Map to 2D Grid for more information.

  • Map → 3D Grid

Opens the Create Grid dialog. See Map to 3D Grid for more information.

  • Map → 2D Scatter Points

Creates a scatter point set from the points and nodes and vertices of the current coverage. See Map to 2D Scatter Points for more information.

  • Map → 3D Scatter Points

Creates a scatter point set from the points and nodes and vertices of the current coverage. See Map to 3D Scatter Points for more information.

  • Map → MODFLOW

Opens the Map → MODFLOW Options dialog. See Map to MODFLOW for more information.

  • Map → SEAM3D
  • Map → FEMWATER

This command assigns the wells, boundary conditions, and recharge zones assigned to the points, arcs, and polygons. See Map to FEMWATER for more information.

  • Map → SEEP2D
  • Map → WASH123D
  • Map → ADH
  • Copy to Coverage...

Opens a dialog allowing for selection of one or more coverages which selected feature objects will be copied to. This may result in overlapping and/or intersecting objects.
