The TUFLOW Simulation menu is accessed by right-clicking on the TUFLOW simulation item (Sim) in the Project Explorer. The following menu commands are available in the TUFLOW Simulation menu:

Delete
Removes the TUFLOW simulation.
Duplicate
Creates another copy of the simulation.
Rename
Changes the name of the simulation.
Export TUFLOW files
SMS will save the TUFLOW input files in the TUFLOW directory for that simulation. If one does not already exist, a prompt will ask to select a location.
Launch TUFLOW
Launches TUFLOW using input files that have previously been exported.
Save Project, Export and Launch TUFLOW
Saves the project, writes out the TUFLOW input files, and launches TUFLOW.
2D Model Control
Brings up the 2D Model Control dialog where various model parameters are set. See TUFLOW 2D Model Control page.
1D Control
Brings up the Control 1D dialog where various model parameters are set. See Model Parameters page.
Model Check
Causes SMS to perform a check for invalid settings that could prevent TUFLOW from running properly. If errors are found, they will be reported in the Model Check dialog with information on how to correct them.

Components Menu

The TUFLOW Components menu is accessed by right-clicking on the TUFLOW Compenents folder in the Project Explorer. The following menu command is available:

New 2D Geometry Component
Creates a geometry components. The TUFLOW simulation can contain components. 2D Grids and certain map coverages can be linked to this component.

The component item also has a right-click menu with the following commands:

Delete
Removes the component.
Delete
Creates a copy of the component with all linked grids and coverages.
Rename
Changes the name of the component.
Add External Files
Launches a browser to add external files to the component.
Grid Options
Brings up the TUFLOW Grid Options dialog.

Material Sets Menu

The TUFLOW Material Set menu is accessed by right-clicking on the TUFLOW Material Set folder in the Project Explorer. The following menu command is available:

New Material Set
Creates a new material set. The TUFLOW simulation can contain multiple material sets.

The material set item also has a right-click menu with the following commands:

Rename
Changes the name of the material set.
Properties
Brings up the TUFLOW Material Properties dialog.
Delete
Removes the material set.
Export
Saves the material set as a TUFLOW Materials File (*.tmf).

Earlier TUFLOW Menu

The following menu commands are available in the TUFLOW Menu:

Note: As of SMS 11.1, the TUFLOW menu has been removed from the menu bar.
File:TUFLOW Cell Attributes.jpg
TUFLOW Cell Attributes dialog
Cell Attributes
Enabled when one or more cells on a TUFLOW grid are selected. The attributes that can be set using this command are the cell code and the option to override the global initial water level (set in the 2D Model Control). The cell code (water cell, inactive cell – in mesh, inactive cell – not in mesh) for the selected cells will only be used if Specify cell by cell is selected in Cell codes section of the TUFLOW Grid Options dialog.
Assign Material Type
This command is enabled when one or more cells on a TUFLOW grid are selected. The command will open the Materials Data dialog. The Materials Data dialog will allow selecting a material to assign to a cell. The material set for the cell will only be used if Specify cell by cell is selected in the Materials section of the TUFLOW Grid Options dialog.
