Re: Deleting a cross section from a panel

Re: Panel or Pool?

Many thanks, Gareth, for this insightful post. I would add one benefit to using a Panel instead of a Pool: when dealing with many cross sections, I find its much quicker to save your workfile in Panel format than in Pool format. I have more than 3000 cross sections in my file and it takes about 6 mi...
