DU conduits external wall controled by Feature Symbology
We have the option to define a template to pipes external walls, but only through the feature definition. For all other elements of the pipe, OR allows for feature symbology. From my experience, symbologys work better and are more constant.
Flow Arrow from High to Low Point for any Civil/Linear Geometry
In placing drainage node to the carriageway or kerb/curb lines in 2D plan, it is useful to show the flow arrow from high point to low point for the drainage engineer. Currently, the flow arrow is only available in "Terrain", but not civil geometry...
Openroads Drainage - HGL versus Headwater Analysis for Headwalls Inletting into a Storm Sewer System
Many times, a stream needs to be drained into a storm sewer system via a headwall. When this occurs, two analysis should be considered: The headwater at the headwall (the mechanics of the water getting into the pipe at the headwall). Generally KYT...
Make it easier to manage longitudinal spread slope. It's nice to input the slope in the properties per node, but consider making it integrated to the gutters used during bypass flow drawing of gutters.
Add the conduit table options similar to drainage for managing conduit sizes, materials, etc... Right now you have to input a conduit table for each utility type and can't import a table from utility to utility. Just need one set of tables to mana...
Drainage Civil Labels/Annotation Groups Recognize Applicable Pipe Inverts
Currently, drainage structures require various civil labels to be set up for the various numbers pipe inverts coming into a structure (0-5 possible). It would be beneficial if the civil labels and annotation groups automatically annotated and upda...
Add profile annotation location option for annotating conduit description only once
If a conduit is perfectly straight, then it is easy to put the description once in the middle, but if the conduit has any bends then each segment gets annotated. Adding an option for annotation frequency with location controls would fix this.
Allow for Hydraulic calculations and profile creation while using tap nodes
Tap nodes are incredibly useful but do not allow for hydraulic modeling or for profile runs. I'd prefer to use tap nodes over transitions because they are easier to use and do not break trunklines into segments. This would help with profiles, pipe...
