When designing storage features in FLOW there is no current way of getting the storage for ponds to look correct to my knowledge graphically. It would be beneficial if you could import your base and top-of-pond strings directly from PDS and state ...

In the new update when you add the porosity it displays that porosity but it is quite an eye sore and would be beneficial to be able to remove or tone it down a bit.

The flow through pond storage option allows the user to select a side slope, depth and base area. It can then predict the bank-top area of that structure. The user can also adapt the shape of the pond/basin in Flow and Live Design and these update...

Add the ability to generate Static/Dynamic FEH unit hydrographs for greenfield catchments

This should be done without having to change the footprint shape in Sketch, SmartTools, Live Design.

To allow an approximate overall attenuation volume when using oversized pipes or manholes, allowing a total possible volume with links and nodes could be useful for reporting purposes

There is an absence of guidance on the use of ReFH2 data in Flow. I understand from discussions with the Help Desk that they don't have access to the software. In the absence of reasonable guidance the ReFH2 features are worthless.

Add chainage, pipe bedding and node cover grade information as options for long section outputs. These are standard requirements for a lot of water authorities so would prevent manual changes being required to allow these outputs to be included.

We have a second Phase to progress of a project previously modelled in PDS, which incorporated complex road junctions. This cannot be imported correctly into live design and is therefore causing an issue.

When placing a manhole schedule in PDS, you are only presented with the options to apply SFA 6 or SFA 7 when automatically assigning manhole type. Both of these are now out of date and option for Sewer Sector Guidance DCG would be useful.
