Allow drainage nodes to show up as a cell (catch basin, headwall, end section) in profile view.

Drainage nodes show up in 2D as the cell/feature definition it is designated like an end section. It would be useful if that same feature would show up in the profile view for drainage profiles. It currently works for the "utilities" part of "Drai...

DU tool to update node name by feature definition

The name of the nodes are defined at placement by the selected Feature Definition. It's common for it to be changed during the design process. For these cases, all altered nodes must be manually renamed. This usually is done through selection or u...

Use Tabs to Separate Items for Each Design Element in ORD Drainage

It is cumbersome to have to scroll through several pages of information to design and review drainage elements. KYTC would like to see tabs used, similar to those used in InRoads S & S. Each element (storm sewers, strom sewer inlets, drainage ...

Automate Node labelling in Cross Section drawings

We need to be able to label nodes in cross sections drawings automatically. At the moment, this can only be done one node at a time, unlike conduits, which can be labeled automatically.

Allow for Hydraulic calculations and profile creation while using tap nodes

Tap nodes are incredibly useful but do not allow for hydraulic modeling or for profile runs. I'd prefer to use tap nodes over transitions because they are easier to use and do not break trunklines into segments. This would help with profiles, pipe...

ORD Drainage/Utilities - Make Item Types Attached through Feature Definitions visible outside ORD

Based on service now case CS0300323, item types attached to drainage/utility nodes through feature definitions are not visible in MicroStation or i.dgns. However, if the item types are attached manually to nodes they are visible outside the civil ...

Name Changing Per Drainage Structure

When naming nodes, we usually associate that node name with the conduit, drainage area, and gutter name. But, if we have to update the node name (ex: 0401 to 0405), then we have to change all the other names manually. User is looking for possibili...

Make editing catchment areas more user friendly

When you initially create a drainage area from a shape, it creates 'smart' vertices that you can grab and move with the cursor. However, after the initial catchment shape is created, the only way to add additional vertices is using the "Insert Ver...

Land Use Areas from a Reference

It would be nice to extract Land Use Data from a reference file rather than requiring the Land Use Areas always be drawn in the main drainage design file. This would both cut down on clutter in the design file and also allow larger areas to be del...

Directly Link to NOAA data

Most state are or are moving to using NOAA rainfall Data. Basic IDF tables can be Downloaded and Uploaded, but it should integrate with the different Calculation methods (Table equations, Poly Log, IDF Curve.....)
