Copy Cell Status The Copy Cell Status command copies the status of the selected cell(s) to the Windows clipboard for use within Graphic Groundwater or with other applications. Within Graphic Groundwater, cell status is displayed with graphic symbols. In some circumstances, however, you may wish to have a record of the cell status as integer values. MODFLOW assigns a 1 to active cells, -1 to constant head cells, and a 0 to inactive cells. The Copy Cell Status command converts the graphic symbols into the standard MODFLOW values for cell status.
