Sluice Data Fields

Sluice gates or penstocks are rectangular drop gates and may be used as the outflow control on storage tanks or ponds. Sluice data can be edited on either the Sluice Grid Window of the Asset Grid or the Sluice Property Sheet.

To view and edit all sluice data, use the Property Sheet.

The following describes all the data which can be used to define a sluice.
