Long Section window
This window displays a cross-section through the length of
a selected run of network objects.
One way to open the window is by selecting the 
(Long section pick) tool from the Tools toolbar and clicking a node or link object (or run) on the GeoPlan. Other ways are described in Displaying a long section.

Using this window you can:
- inspect a run of nodes and links
- edit network objects by accessing their property
sheets
- view simulation results
- when scenarios are used, you are able to display more than one set of simulation results, which makes it easy to compare them
- insert a node into a
link displayed in the window
You can have several long section windows open at the same time.
