Introduction

This tool adds a suffix (.#) to SWMM features with duplicate names. SWMM features must have unique names to avoid errors during simulation.

Usage

This tool, Integrity - Make object names unique, can be found in the QGIS processing toolbox panel under TUFLOW >> SWMM. To open the Processing Toolbox panel, navigate to 'Processing' in the menubar and select 'Toolbox'.

Parameters

  1. Input layer: The existing SWMM layer to be updated.
  2. Selected features only: If feature(s) in the input SWMM layer have been selected using the 'Select Features' tool, this option will become available. If checked on, the tool will only update the selected feature(s).
  3. Cleaned Objects: Determines the location and filename of the output file.

Note: If 'Edit Feature In-Place' is selected, the tool does not require any input parameters. Once the tool is double-clicked in the processing toolbox, the selected layer will automatically be updated.
