and define the phreatic surface object by clicking on the points that the polyline shape must pass.
Defining phreatic surface
To accept the phreatic object just right click anywhere on the drawing area. The phreatic surface object will be displayed using the visual properties defined in the Visual Properties dialog. The parts of the phreatic surface that lay above the ground surface object will be considered submerged and will be shown with a hatched area.
