External Flow Utility Properties for Manholes

Catch basins have the following flow types that can be added: additional subsurface flow (cfs), known flow (cfs), additional carryover flow (cfs), external CA (acres), and external Tc (min). Manholes only have the option of known flow. Known flows...

Extend 2D profile terrain limits beyond element

The ability to extend a profile's terrain cut using the 2D quick profile tool would be helpful for all profile types - but specifically drainage. I'd like to be able to set a buffer distance that extends existing and proposed surface cuts beyond t...

Show Projected 3D Cuts when using the Project Run Tool

If we project the profile runs to centerline, we lose the ability to show the utility crossings generated by the 3D cut at the pipe centerline. We can add a 3D cut at the road centerline, but often the crossing utilities are not in the same locati...

Ability to modify 'Rational Method Frequency Adjustment Factor' for a specific catchment or range of catchments.

Currently there is only an option to add Rational Method Frequency Adjustment Factors for the entire storm, which affects all catchments. Our GDOT standards require modification of the factor for only C values less than 0.6.

Add ability to set default Engineering Libraries for all users

As it stands, I can make a new Engineering Library on a network drive to share with other users, but if I wanted to make that library the "default", I can't without having to make the change for each individual user.

Maintain Item Types when extracting drainage or utility model from survey graphics.

When using "Extract From Graphic" tool to create a drainage or utility model object, the extraction process fails to bring the Item Type from the source object (in this example a surveyed gas line), leading the user to reattach the Item Type to th...

Automatically adjust structure Hight to include pipe thickness

it would be more accurate to calculate the structure Height if when a pipe is connected to a structure that the bottom base slab was adjusted to be below the wall of the pipe. this would also make the 3D model look better.
