Net edit

Net edit is an option in the editor that allows users to add, remove or replace Net Lines for networks using special drawing tools. These drawing tools are different from the usual selection drawing tools (brush).

Draw modes

• Add
  • Add a Net Line consecutively by adding net nodes and connecting the newest node with the previous one by adding a net line between them. Click on the same spot to stop the consecutive adding and to start somewhere else.
  • Inserting a node into an existing Net Line is also possible. Snap distance is controller using the Merge distance (m) value.
  • Connect via roads will create a path from start to end using the road system.
• Remove
  • Select a net line to remove, highlighted in red. With the option repeated selected, more net lines will removed until a net node is encountered that is connected to more than one other net line.
• Move
  • Move existing Net Nodes and potentially merge them with other Net Nodes or split existing Net Lines.

Draw options

• Connect via roads
  • This option is used when in the Add draw mode. It will add multiple Net Lines following the road to connect the start and end point when adding Net Nodes.
