Tools and Toolboxes

MIKE Zero contains tools that are applied for pre- and post processing data. Dependent on the main usability some of these tools have been defined as belonging to certain Tool Areas and Tool Groups.

You can access such a tool in two ways:

·         Open the GUI for the Toolbox containing tools in the given Tool Area (e.g. MIKE 21 Toolbox)

·         Select the tool from the Tool Explorer
(when using the MIKE Zero Project Framework)

The input data and result is the same disregarding which way is used to access and execute the tool. However some functionality are different:

·         When using a Toolbox the input data is saved in a separate Toolbox file (e.g. input.21t) whereas the input data in Tool Explorer will be saved in the common .txp file for the project.

·         The setup file from a Toolbox can be used for Batch Execution whereas a tool defined in Tool Explorer cannot.
