CAD Background overlay in Flow for stage 3 coordination of sites

For stage 3 designs that will not require civil 3D or smart tools, would be invaluable to just be able to overlay a basic cad layout into Flow to visualize indicative drainage layouts rather than manually putting in coordinates and hoping it's right.

Flow to calculate side infiltration area of basins

It would be extremely useful if FLOW could calculate the infiltration areas of infiltration basins/flow through ponds rather than having to calculate it ourselves. For example, if we suggest a minimum base area, height and side slope, then FLOW wo...

Ability to reorder columns to user preference

Having the ability to reorder the columns and save as a user preference to avoid scrolling across the 30+ columns without having to hide them individually.

select hydrobrakes manually and/or change the flush-flow point

Given the development of "fit to outlet pipes (XP)" and the ability to manually set the Flush-Flow point on other ones, it would be useful to be able to have more flexibility within flow to either manually select a specific hydrobrake or at least ...

Model building connections to avoid the need to use third party software

Can a function be added to allow users to model building connections such as foul connections or connections from RWPs. This would allow the modelling of all below ground drainage in one model and allow BIM collaboration with other design discipli...

Foul network analysis

Water authorities are asking for a foul water network analysis to confirm the velocities, pipe diameters and flows. Flow cannot provide this information because the foul network has not outlet and it gets flooded. Your response is to add an hydrog...

Outflow rates below 1 l/s to be specified to exact decimal point

It will be beneficial if the outflow rates below 1 litres per second can be specified to the exact decimal point. This is because a minimal change in a small outflow can have an impact on the storage required.

"Select all" option for each storm duration and specify a surcharged outfall by level

In Causeway Flow, having an option to "Select All" storm durations in simulation settings, as well as when specifying a surcharged outfall for a specific return period, would be useful. Also, having the option to specify a surcharged outfall by wa...
