== Grid Creation ==
First, the user should use create two points which will define the Begin and Ending points for the GenCade Grid.
See the <u>[[GenCade_Grid_Point_Attributes]]</u> dialog for instructions and important notes.
== Grid Definition Options ==
Next, the user should define the default grid cell size for this coverage. This is done by right clicking on the GenCade grid coverage in the SMS Data Tree and selecting "Grid Definitions Options" as shown Figure 1 on the right.

Once there is a Begin and End point defined and the default grid spacing has been set, the grid can be built by adding it to a GenCade simulation.
If no GenCade simulation has been added to the SMS data tree, simply right click in the open space within the data tree and select "New Simulation..." and then "GenCade" (Figure 2).


:'''Note:''' this option is called "GenCade Beta" in SMS 13.3.x.
Once the grid has been added to the GenCade simulation, it will be generated and appear on the SMS Graphics Window (Figure 3).

The GenCade Point coverage allows the user to define specific points in the interface used by GenCade. This coverage uses Feature Points within the SMS to define the positioning for each type and to assign the attributes:

Notes:

  • Only one of this type coverage can be added to the simulation.

This coverage is combined with the GenCade Structures/Events and Grid coverages to define all necessary pieces for the GenCade simulation.
