The '''Draw Flow Patterns''' command is used to draw a flow path for each triangle in the TIN. While it does not store stream networks and basin boundaries in memory, it aids in the initial understanding of the terrain model and helps identify regions which need editing before the actual creation of outlets, stream networks, and drainage basins takes place. For large TINs, the number of triangles which have their flow paths drawn can be reduced by changing the number of triangle/flowpath value in the Drainage tab of the [[WMS:Display Options|''Display Options'']] dialog. Overland and channel flow are represented by the downhill overland color and downhill channel color as specified in the ''Drainage'' tab of the ''Display Options'' dialog. If a basin is selected prior to issuing the command then flow paths will only be drawn for the triangles that are part of the selected basin. | The '''Draw Flow Patterns''' command is used to draw a flow path for each triangle in the TIN.

The Draw Flow Patterns command is used to draw a flow path for each triangle in the TIN. While it does not store stream networks and basin boundaries in memory, it aids in the initial understanding of the terrain model and helps identify regions which need editing before the actual creation of outlets, stream networks, and drainage basins takes place. For large TINs, the number of triangles which have their flow paths drawn can be reduced by changing the number of triangle/flowpath value in the Drainage tab of the Display Options dialog. Overland and channel flow are represented by the downhill overland color and downhill channel color as specified in the Drainage tab of the Display Options dialog. If a basin is selected prior to issuing the command then flow paths will only be drawn for the triangles that are part of the selected basin.
