The IDF table equation storm data isn't producing the correct intensities in my catchments. How do I fix that?
This is a known issue that has been reported to development for a fix in a future release of the product (report number 352663).
The workaround should be done as follows:
1) Create a user defined IDF table in the Storm Data dialog by clicking on the drop down arrow next to the first icon and choose User-Defined IDF Table.
2) Add the return period or range of return period and add the range of durations.
3) Copy/paste in the intensity values from the IDF table equation by selecting all the cells in the table and using the CTRL + C keys on your keyboard and the using control + P keys to paste the values into the first cell in the frequency column .The video below outlines how to perform steps 2-3.
4) Set the global storm event (Components > Global Storm Events) to use the user defined IDF table as your storm event.
