==Configure TUFLOW==
The
* Open or save a map document before running.
* Select a TUFLOW Model folder for your model. This can be either the folder that contains the entire TUFLOW model folder structure or the folder that contains the TUFLOW subdirectories. For example, it can be either "D:\projects\Example\TUFLOW" or “D:\projects\Example\”. All of the following tools will use this location.
* Enter the file path to the TUFLOW executable.
* Select the projection for the TUFLOW model. <br>
* If the "Create Folder Structure" check-box is enabled when the tool is run, the standard TUFLOW folder structure is created. A projection layer is saved inside the '''TUFLOW\model\gis''' folder and a simple TUFLOW control file (.tcf) is created. This .tcf file is in the '''TUFLOW\runs''' folder and is named Create_Empties.tcf.
*If the "Create Template Files" check-box is enabled a TUFLOW simulation is started with the Create_Empties.tcf as in the input file. This simulation creates a series of template files in the '''TUFLOW\model\gis\empty''' folder. All of these template files have projection (CRS) as defined and have the correct GIS attributes for use in TUFLOW modelling. This can be brought into ArcGIS using the [[#Import Empty (template) TUFLOW Files | Import Empty]] tool.
* If the "Tutorial Model" check-box is enabled, the Create_Empties.tcf will run with the "Tutorial Model == ON" command.
* Select the default GIS format used in the TUFLOW model. If creating empty files, the empty files will be output in this format along with the projection file. The GPKG format is compatible with the TUFLOW 2023-03 Release or later.

==Import Empty (template) TUFLOW Files==
The "Import Empty"
* Ensure the Empty Directory location is correct.
*Select the object type (point, line or region)▼
* Select the desired Empty Type (e.g. 2d_code, 2d_bc). A list and description of available types can be found in Table 2-4 of the [[https://downloads.tuflow.com/TUFLOW/Releases/Latest/TUFLOW%20Manual.pdf 2018 TUFLOW Manual]].
* Specify the run ID for the file. This will be added to the file name as a suffix.

The ArcTUFLOW toolbox requires configuring prior to using this tool. Refer to [[#Configure_TUFLOW | Configure TUFLOW]] for more instructions. <br><br>

==Insert TUFLOW Attributes==
The "Insert TUFLOW Attributes" tool will insert a TUFLOW attribute template in front of an existing GIS layer. This is useful when transferring data from a database (e.g. council stormwater network) to TUFLOW format.
The steps are:
* Select the input file (the file to have TUFLOW
* Select the TUFLOW file format.
* Specify a run ID for the file. This will be added to the name as a suffix.
This tool is best used if [[#Configure_TUFLOW | Configure TUFLOW]] has been run prior.
Line 127 ⟶ 128:
This tool is useful for reviewing models as well as building.
==Apply GPKG Layer Names==
This tool will change the layer name to be the same as the layer name within the GPKG database to every open GPKG layer in the workspace. This tool is useful as sometimes when GPKG layers are opened in ArcGIS (depending on how they are opened) they will contain both the database name and layer name e.g. "database - layername". This tool strips the database name from the layer name in the Layers Panel.
If there are open layers that are not GPKG, then it will have no affect of these layer names.
