Zone Set Manager (Geospatial analysis)
When you click Manage Zone Sets in the Step 2 - Configure pane for a Zonal Accumulation, the Zone Set Manager opens and displays the Zone Sets pane, which lists the available zone sets. To open a zone set, click the name; the Zone Set Manager opens the Zones pane, which lists the zones in the zone set. Zone sets are XML files.
You cannot duplicate, rename, and then modify AIR-provided zones, such as the RDS zones. You also cannot delete AIR-provided zone sets. You can, however, duplicate, rename, and delete any zones that you have created.
You can perform various tasks based on whether you are in the Zone Sets pane or the Zones pane.
| Remove a zone set or zone record |
Highlight the item that you want to remove, click Note:
Deleting a custom zone set deletes the zone set and any custom zones that have been added to it. |
| Save changes to a zone set or zone record | The Save button becomes available after you make some changes, such as after you change a zone definition. For example, you may want to change the damage % for one or more zones in a zone set. |
| Add a zone set | Select the Add
row (the first row in
the grid), enter a name for the new zone set, enter information in the
Description column, and then click
Enter. Click the name of the newly added zone set and
then click Add
to add zones to the
zone set. |
| Add a zone | Click the name of the zone set to which you want to add one or more zones.

| Duplicate a zone set | In the Zone Set Manager, highlight the zone set that
you want to duplicate, click
(Duplicate), and then edit the name of the copied
zone set and, optionally, the description. The copied zone set includes all the
records for the source zone set. This is useful if you want to do stress
testing by running the same zones with different damage percents. |

want to copy to the Clipboard, click
(Copy ), and then click
(Paste ). You can then edit the copied zone
record. |
