Remove Automated Upstream IL On Storage

Storage structures now automate the upstream IL of the incoming nodes. This overwrites any designed levels and this cannot be bypassed. Remove this structure so that basins can have stepped incoming ILs.

Working Hyperlinks

When selecting hyperlinks from the plan within Flow, it no longer takes you to the selected information, if you're within a different network. Previously, clicking a hyperlink takes you to the information, regardless of network.

Adding a tick box next to selected return periods

Currently, to stop a return period (e.g. 1 in 30 year) from running in a simulation, you have to delete it entirely. This is a problem when you're testing different storm scenarios but want to keep the full list of return periods for later — you e...

Manhole schedule length control.

An ability to control how many/the length of the manhole schedule to allow it to be fitted to a drawing sheet at usable scale without needing to 'cut' a schedule into multiple sections adjacent to one another and copy the title block along on each...

Cover specifications for Manhole Schedules

Adding a way to include the manhole cover design class (D400, C250, B125 etc etc) with a dimensions option (600x600, 1200x600, 300x300 etc etc) so that these can be added to the manhole schedule so you dont need to export the MH schedule and need ...

Total Volume of Structure

Finding total volume of a structure would be useful (similar to the volume Static Tool in MicroDrainage).At present the only way to do it is look at the storage tab and hover over a depth in the storage structure section and it shows the depth and...

Minimum Pipe Length

The mimimum pipe length in Flow is currently set to 1m. Where modelling junctions and connections there may be less than 1m between the junctions. Please revise the minimum length to around 300-500mm.

negative cover depths visual warning

Is there a way that Flow could highlight where there is a negative cover depth? As it’s not too bad on a small network to search through all the links, but as the network gets larger it becomes harder to do. It’s only just that the red/orange/gree...
