Place a sanitary pipe that follows a terrain at a specific depth of cover.

It appears that the software currently doesn’t allow sanitary conduit FDs to follow a slope even when the FD is set to depth of cover. it would be nice to tell the program to follow a given depth under the terrain, so I can see the pipe slope vary...

Display and Annotate Tap Nodes in Profile Drawing

The feature name (e.g. a number) of the tap node can be labeled in the plan.The tap is visible in the "Engineering Profile".It would be helpful if this could also be displayed and labeled in the profile view/drawing. How it should work: Tap Node i...

External model checking process - by possibly running a report to identify where 3d conduit string lines have been placed - i.e soffit, centre, invert, crown or base, this will ensure all output data of conduits are consistent for construction.

This is useful to enable a) - checks to be carried out, b) - to identify possible conduits that require amending - to align with all others. This will enable consistent and accurate output data to be produced, that can be used to construct from.

limit the number of Rows in the Elevation-Area Table.

I get close to 40-50 rows of data when I assign a "pond" to a terrian. I only need data every 0.1ft but it is providing much more.

Allow Conduits from different "families" to connect to the same node.

Add support for nodes that accept multiple types of conduit families.

Ditches be channel features

It would be wonderful if ditches were channel features so that they could be treated as surface features like gutters are to get head on inlet.

Custom Grate Spacing and Sizes

It would be amazing if we could utilize our own grate spacing for calculating the head on inlets. KYTC has several grates that don't quite match with what is in the delivered system, and this may affect the depth of the head on the inlet.

Element Templates Point to Multiple Cells

At KYTC we like to show the vaults of drainage structures, in order to do that S&S drew them for us. ORD does that in 3D, however, we turn the 3D off when producing plans. It would help in the case that we could point to two cells (one that ma...

Profile Annotation Groups

A lot of our project show multiple profiles in one profile view (EG, Proposed PGL, RT Gutter, LT Gutter, etc.). In MicroStation we set up a specific .ddb file that would plot the text labels in the desired location. We haven’t been successful in c...
