Description property sheet

Description property sheet

This window provides space for various comments on a project in DRAINS. The first panel allows three title block lines to be entered. These appear, right-justified, in the bottom right corner of the drawing of the system in the Main Window. They can be left blank.


These titles are reproduced when the drawing is printed using the Print Diagram option in the File menu.

The second space allows for any comments describing the system being analysed.
