Deep bore soakaways should able to have different infiltration rates

Where there are different infiltration rates (as the deep bore passes through different soils) it would be helpful if Flow was able to replicate what has possible in other software for some time, where these can be applied based on the sub soil ma...

Function to add a prefix to node names

Industry wide drainage system manholes are normally named as S1 and F1, can we add a function to add a prefix to the nodes in Flow, avoids the element of human error having to manually name everything. This option is available in microdrainage, it...

Wheel spacing on axel

Can there be a setting added to allow the wheel spacing along an axel to be altered (say 45mm between the faces of the wheel walls)

Exporting Link Hydrograph Table to Excel

Currently when the Link Hydrograph Output is exported to Excel to cells are locked and the user is unable to create graphs etc. as these are greyed out. There is a work around in that the entire output's values can be copied into a new spreadsheet...

Design Report Rainfall Totals

The rainfall contained in the Design Report just indicates Peak and Average Intensities. The total rainfall for the storm event should also be documented, particularly as the first 5mm of rainfall now requires interception. There will be some even...

Ability to zoom Results Page (text is quite small) as the Nodes and Links Tables

The text contained within the Results page is quire small and not easy to read. It would also reduce the prospect of miss reading a line of data.

better error reporting

when there is an error with an alignment, the software doesn't tell you where that error actually. You just get the red "i" next to the alignment, saying 2road/feature self interesects" or "cannot merge with finished surface" This is very frustrat...

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...

Drawing outputs such as long sections and manhole schedules to indicate manhole & pipe reference prefixes and suffixes the same way as it appears on the plan

For example if I set "F" prefix for the foul chambers in "Annotations", the manholes on the layout will appear as intended (F1, F2, etc...). However these prefixes are ignored when generating other drawing outputs such as schedules or long section...
