Details on Lock/Unlock Section Parts

If you calculate a network for the first time, the dimensions of the components are locked by default and will not be changed during a calculation. To optimize the pipe network for the given design criteria, you can unlock the dimensions. Depending on the selected trade, you can lock and unlock other parameters in the dialog, such as the design form or the maximum velocities.
