Hydraflow Hydrographs estimated detention - inflow hydrograph contains zero peak

In Hydraflow Hydrographs, I have two scs hydrographs with 25 yr peak flow of 195 & 236 cfs.  I go to pond tools and pick the hydrograph with 236 as my input and when I input 195 as my target I get an box saying "Inflow hydrograph contains zero peak flow.  Cannot compute."  I don't understand how it says that when in the Qp In for the 25 it shows 236 cfs.  I can pick the input for the other that shows Qp 195 and input something and it returns with a value.  Why does HH not recognize the Qp for this hydrograph?

I have the same error, hydrograph selected OBVIOUSLY has a peak flow.

 

Set up basin volume wanting to size outlet.

 

I selected every hydrograph in the set with the same results.

 

Apparently there is no answer from the BORG, er Autodesk.

COMBINE  those hydrographs and route through the pond.

I don't think you understand the question. The basin has storage. The hydrographs HAVE peak flows, and don't need to be combined. I want the program to give me an estimate as to the outlet size(s) to meet the required reduction in flow. I have entered target flows. The attachment is what happens.

And guess what?  Your forum does not allow me to attach my .gpw file so you can recreate the error.

Do you have a 1 year event? If not, you have to turn it off.

 

You can rename the file with a .txt extension or zip it.
