Create and Edit UFM Diagram
The Launch Diagram Manager tool either creates a new underground facility diagram or displays
an existing diagram. If you want to create a new diagram, ensure an
editing session has been started. If a diagram exists at the selected
location it will be displayed and available for editing. You may perform
available steps in the Diagram Manager (e.g., create duct banks and
ducts, add annotation, etc.).
If you do not have an editing session started, the Launch Diagram Manager tool displays existing diagrams, but not allow a new one to be created.
- Start an editing session.
- Select the Launch Diagram Manager tool and click an underground
structure feature on the map. The Diagram Manager window shows the
steps that may be performed.
The top section of the Diagram Manager displays the steps involved in creating and managing underground facility diagrams. Steps that are available to be executed have a green dot
next to them. A step with a red dot
may not be performed until a previous task is completed. For example, you may not create ducts until the facility floor and walls are created. When a step is expanded, the tasks that may be performed are listed. Completed tasks are indicated with a checkmark
.
The middle window displays instructions for the selected step. This window may be hidden or displayed by clicking the bar.
The bottom window displays the options for the selected task.
