I have always used the free sampler of HydroCAD in order to model smaller sites. I find the pond tool very useful for modeling underground detention facilities. Recently I was forced to update to the newest version, pon doing so I noticed that I can now only add the subcat nodes. the nodes for reachs, ponds, and links are completely mssing. Has anyone else had this issue? Is this typical for the trial versions?

Thanks,
Anthony

I'm guessing that you're referring to the palette on the left side of the screen? It should include all the available types of nodes (subcat, reach, pond, link, image/text) The Sampler is not limited in that regard.

If you're seeing something else please provide a screen shot. Also, what version of Windows and HydroCAD that you are running?

PS: The palette may have been customized by modifying the palette.hcp project file.

I have attached a screenshot of my situation. I believe your correct, there seems to be an issue with my palette. I uninstalled the program from my PC and reinstalled but that didnt work.

Thanks
 
Problem Solved! I was able to find and delete the palette.hcp file, when I re-opened the program it was good!

Thank you!
 
Sounds like you may have inadvertently edited the palette.hcp file. As you found, deleting the file will restore the default palette.
