The XY Series Selection Window - River Results

The XY Series Selection (River Results) window is accessed via the XY Series button on the Results tab (when in 1D River selection mode).

Alternatively, this is accessed via the right-click menu (from the map or network table) of a selected node, or via the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+Q from the network table.

The window contains options related to visualising an XY Series Plot (River Results).

Node selection

Available Items/Selected Items

The Available Items list on the left displays all nodes available for plotting from your active 1D river network. Those currently selected are displayed in the Selected Items list on the right. Buttons located between these lists provide functionality to move items from one list to the other. When a node is added to the Selected Items list, it is removed from the Available Items list (and vice versa when nodes are removed from the Selected Items list).

Save

This button opens a standard Windows File Explorer window to allow you to save the current nodes in the Selected Items list for use in future plots. This will be saved in a text file.

Load

This button opens a standard Windows File Explorer window to allow you to navigate to the location of a text file of selected nodes. Once loaded, the list of nodes will populate the Selected Items list. 

Dropdown (Model Order by default)

This dropdown allows for selection between alternative ways to order the Available Items and Selected Items lists.

Result file selection

Results Files

Loaded results and calibration data files available for plotting are displayed in a list. A checkbox is provided to select to plot from each data file. By default, this list will be populated with any available results files from simulations loaded in the current project (and associated to the active river network). If there are no simulations currently loaded in the project, or the active simulation has not been run to generate results, the tool will prompt for selection of one or multiple 1D results files (prior to the tool opening), and these files will populate the list by default.

Add Results/Cal Files(s) 

This button opens a standard Windows File Explorer window to allow you to navigate to the location of results or calibration data files. The selected files should contain data associated to some or all of the nodes in the active network. Once loaded, the file will be added to the Results Files list displayed above the button. 

Remove Selected File(s)

This button removes selected files from the Results Files list displayed above the button. 

Variable selection

A table lists all possible variables available for plotting. The default selection is the stage variable only.

Time range selection

These fields contain the Start Time and End Time of the plot. Default values are the full range of the selected results file. A button is provided to reset this range to the default values. The Selected Time field is disabled as not applicable for this plot type.

Export settings

These fields contain the settings related to the .jpeg files created via the Export Plot Settings File(s) function located within the right-click menu of the 1D River Network panel. Selecting this option in the right-click menu opens a standard Windows File Explorer window to allow you to browse to plot settings files (extension .psf). Clicking Open will then create a .jpeg file of the plot specified in the plot settings file, for every selected file.

Toolbar functionality

Plot

This button opens an XY Series Plot (River Results) of the selected data.

Cancel

This button closes the XY Series Selection (River Results) window.

Help

This button opens the user manual.

Save Plot Settings

This button opens a standard Windows File Explorer window to allow you to save the current plot settings selected to recreate the chart again. This will be saved in a text file (xml format) with extension .psf.

Load Plot Settings

This button opens a standard Windows File Explorer window to allow you to navigate to the location of a plot settings (.psf) file. Once loaded, selections in the file will populate the XY Series Selection (River Results) window.
