Catchment Areas by shape

If I could select all shapes and have it create all catchments at once that would save a lot of time. It would be great to have a dialogue box pop up where defaults can be changed.

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...
