Hi,
thanks for contributing to powsybl !
Can you tell us more about this project ?

I launched it and imported the sample src/main/resources/sample/sampleNet.xml

What are we supposed to do ? I couldn't do anything more than drag elements from the substation.

Cheers,
Jon

Hi John. When you select any object on the one line, left pane will display all the information available for that element. When data is editable, left pane will let you edit. Pallette on the right is fully functional, and let's you insert new network components (including voltage levels). With delete key you can remove selected elements. Start clicking any component on oneline diagram, and try to edit it's attributes on the left pane. Editable attributes are marked with a pencil icon on the right of the editing pane. You can also move terminals associated to components: when you select a component, references to terminals will be showed on editing pane. Those references are represented with a button. If you want to "move" the terminal, just click on the button and select a new terminal on the diagram. It applies to connection terminals and regulating terminals (generators, transformers, compensators). Editing pane also will give you access to edit ir add transformer's ratio and phase tap changers. You can also run power flows (menu Run), using Hades2 (before, you must configure some parameters using Tools menu). You can add a new substation, using the "+" sign icon on the bottom toolbar. With the icon to the right of the + sign, you can select "bus cells", and using Ctrl+d keys the selected cell is duplicated, making a lot easier creating "bays" on a station. Also, you can start a new network from scratch (File/New...). I'll try to submit some tutorials later. Best regards, El lun., 4 nov. 2019 07:58, Jon Harper <[email protected]> escribió:

Thanks for taking the time to explain. A good way to make a tutorial is to make a short gif and post it to this issue. I use simplescreenrecorder to record my desktop and then ffmpeg to convert it to a gif ( $ ffmpeg -i foo.mkv foo.gif ) (you can also speed it up and scale it down with $ ffmpeg -i foo.mkv -vf "select='not(mod(n,2))',setpts=N/30/TB,scale=800x600" foo.gif ) (use a different number than 2 for higher speedups). For example, you get this

I managed to do everything you described, except adding nodes.. When I create a substation from scratch, I create the busbar in the voltage level, and then I create a disconnector on this busbar but the second terminal of this disconnector should be a node (so that I can attach for example a switch), but I can't find a way to do that, I have the select another node of the substation and there is only the busbar.

Cheers,
Jon

Hi Jon. Great demostration!. I wouldn' si it better. To create a new node attached to the second terminal of the switch, just write it's ID in the switch's combo box, and the node will be created. Best regards. César. El vie., 15 nov. 2019 12:40, Jon Harper <[email protected]> escribió:

Jon, attached you'll find 2 tutorials: one showing haw to start a network from scratch (regarding your last question), and other showing a cell duplication, using cell selection and Ctrl+D keys. I have preferred to send you the original .mkd videos, to maintain quality (scaled gifs didn't let to see cleary some edition steps) and save disk space (obiously, if no scaling is applied, gifs are bigger than original videos). Feel free sharing them, or better, tell me how should I share them with others. Kindest regards, César Galli. El vie., 15 nov. 2019 a las 14:50, César Galli (<[email protected]>) escribió:

Hi Cesar,
I can't see the files. Try sending them directly to me instead of github by email, or upload them to a free video hosting service ?
