What's new in InfoWorks WS Pro version 2021.9

Grid page for Valve and Control Valve are merged

The Valve grid page now shows both control valves and all other non-control valves. This avoids confusion when moving a valve from a control valve to non-control valve, and vice versa.

Commit changes and re-run

A Commit changes and re-run option is now available which allows you to commit changes to the network and/or control and automatically execute the run afterwards in just one click. This will avoid going through multiple steps of committing changes to a given scenario or base before running the simulation. Using this tool will make it faster for you to view and analyze results, especially when you are working on various scenarios.

WatSed Pipe Sedimentation Model retired

WatSed is no longer supported starting InfoWorks WS Pro version 2021.8, but existing WatSed runs that were made in earlier versions of the application are still available for results review.

Revised About Box

The About box is now updated to follow Autodesk systems. It has been updated and now displays licence agreement information about your current installation, the version number of the installed software, and the licence name, which is read from the dongle or server.

Further information, such as the licence number, the version of the operating system you are using and the name and location of the master database, which was previously displayed in the About box, is now displayed in a new Additional Information window. This window can be displayed by clicking the new Additional Information button in the About box.

WS Pro Exchange now supports scenarios

Starting this version, WS Pro Exchange now supports scenarios. Scenarios allows you to model variations of a network simultaneously without the need to create separate branched networks. This is a very useful tool if used to investigate the impact of various parameters (pipe size, pipe material, for example) on simulations.

WS Pro Viewer can open and copy a transportable database

Similar to the functionality in InfoWorks WS Pro, WS Pro Viewer may now open and copy a transportable database. For more information, refer to copying data between databases.
