Accessing Scenario Comparison Tool

The Scenario Comparison tool can be accessed from the Scenario Manager, the Workspace, and the Tools menu.

From the Scenario Manager

To set up a comparison from the Scenario Manager, first select the pipes and junctions to compare in the workspace. Then, select the desired scenario to compare the current scenario to in the Scenario Manager. Note the current scenario is indicated by the green check-mark symbol. Right-click the desired scenario, and select Compare Selected Scenarios.... This will bring users to the Scenario Comparison window and display a grid with the differences between the selected objects in the two scenarios.

To modify the comparison use the Modify Comparison button at the bottom of the window.

From the Workspace

From the workspace, users can quickly select desired pipes and junctions in the scenario and compare them to those found in any other scenario.

First, select the desired pipe(s) and/or junction(s) in the workspace. Then, right-click the Workspace, choose Compare Scenarios, and select the desired comparison. This will bring users to the Scenario Comparison window and display a grid with the differences between the selected objects in the two scenarios.

To modify the comparison use the Modify Comparison button at the bottom of the window.

From the Tools Menu

From the Tools menu, there are multiple options to generate the Scenario Comparison Grid.

A comparison grid can be directly generated by selecting the desired objects to compare in the Workspace, then selecting the scenarios to be compared from the Compare Scenarios menu option.

Alternatively, the Scenario Comparison Tool menu option can be selected to build a custom scenario comparison by directly selecting the scenarios, objects, and parameters to be included in the comparison. See Modify Comparison for more information on the available options.

Click the Show Comparison button at the bottom of the window to view the comparison. To make additional changes, use the Modify Comparison button at the bottom of the window.
