View ground model profile for a temporary line
It would be useful to quickly draw a line and see a plot of the ground model along that line. Similar to ArcGIS's Elevation Profile tool and HEC-RAS's Plot Terrain Profiles tool.

improve print functionality
The print functionality in ICM could be improved very much (printing to PDF files). It takes at the moment a lot of time and even then it is not possible to easily (and flexible) fit a selection to the chose page setup (size) for example. Or fit a complet network to the chose paper size.
Of course using snipping tool is a workaround sometimes, However this is not suitable in many cases.
To my opinion a package like ICM needs a working functionality to export results to PDF in a proper and nice manner for reporting.

ChatGPT in ICM
Hello Help Desk, this is just a general query, but will Autodesk-Infoworks be developing plug-ins for ChatGBT to allow Chat GBT to write custom SQL queries for Infoworks WSPro and ICM? Chat GBT can already write generic SQL queries, but it needs the database schema to be able to write specific SQLs. This seems like a great opportunity to assist users that are a little bit weak on SQL to get more out of Infoworks.

split network results lines
it would be great if the "splitting lines" function can be applied to network results lines too, which would help a lot if we need to break up a large amount of NRLs into multiple segments rather than redrawing them.

Cumulative flow for comparison (via Result> Graph Report>Location/Simulation report
When producing flow comparison in InfoWorks ICM (via Result> Graph Report>Location/Simulation report) please add the cumulative flow (dynamically for the visible range). Currently this is available only for Graphing any single pipe. And also give option to check/uncheck any given time series visibility when more than 2 hydrograph is compared. Also, It appears ‘Statistics Blocks’ font size/style cannot be altered.

Create an RTC field within object properties in ICM
Currently in order to establish where & how RTC's are influencing a network, you are required to open the RTC editor window / expand each individual RTC to see all the details & cross reference any object ID's to see if it may be affecting an area you are interested in. This is time consuming and not practical for larger models which may have dozens of RTC's active.
If there was a field within each object that could indicate if RTC had been applied and reference it (in a similar fashion to head discharge tables), this would be helpful and…

Different shape sluice or pipe/orifice closure option
We usually model closed gates as sluices, as they are the ones that can easily be closed (by setting the height to zero). The downside of this is that it can only be a rectangle (and it usually closes off a round pipe). An orifice now has the nice option to set it at either circular or rectangular, but closing it is not possible (setting the flow limit to zero would make sense here, but doesn’t work). Is it possible to do something about that? In WSPro you have the nice checkbox Close Pipe for all objects, that would come…

RTC - Allow data to be pasted into tables and it automatically generate the rows
The only way to add new rows to an RTC Table is to manual click on them - if would be better if you could paste a large number of rows from Excel and it auto-generates the rows in the same way as when pasting data into the Inflow table.

Bank line ground model update from within properties view
Make update from ground model possible from within properties view (as is already possible for cross sections)

Export run results to csv: timestep options
When exporting run results to csv, it would be useful to select a timeframe you wish to export (excluding for instance the initial conditions that haven't settled into a level that makes sense). Also exporting at a different timestep than the one your run uses, would be nice. These features could maybe be added to the replay options dialog?

Cross section result view: keyboard shortcuts to go upstream or downstream
In the cross section result view (showing the water level), in RS there was the possibility to go upstream or downstream with PageUp/PageDwn, in ICM you have to right click to move upstream or downstream

RTC rules: order alphabetically
When copying rules, they appear in seemingly random order. When you have a lot of rules it can be very difficult to have an overview

Give a warning when copying between networks with different user defined defaults
when copying for example conduits between networks with flags #D for headloss and roughness, the values are adapted to the user defined values in the new network. This can be confusing.

Include regulator state in graph reports
this can only be done with custom graphs, would be easier in standard graphs for run comparison

Better functionality for multiruns
- number episodes in episode collection
- sort runs according to number
- greater timesteps for runoff only runs
- resume with next run if a run fails
- easy export of maximum results of runs (without results of the runoff only runs)

RTC range: give the choice to include or exclude the minimum or maximum value
Make it possible to define 'greater than (GT)' or 'greater or equal (GE)' in a range in RTC.

Possibility to turn off report windows
Now, when updating elements from ground model, extending cross sections, inserting an opening in a bridge… a report is displayed. This can be very annoying when building up a model and you have to click the report windows away. It would be useful to have an option to turn off these report windows.

More flexibility for pdm runs
We would like to be able to simulate warmup and hydraulic simulations with different input sources. Now the run crashes if for example rainfall data does not match the saved state of the warmup run. It would also be very useful to make it possible to do the warmup run with a higher calculation time step.

Pause simulations during server restarts
Please could we have an ability to pause simulations whilst an InfoWorks ICM server is restarted?
As part of the wider drive to reduce CSO spills there is an increasing need to run long time series through sewer models. This can require models to simulate for multiple weeks; this isn't compatible with automatic updating on servers, which restarts them to apply updates, which causes any active simulation to fail.
Microsoft Azure for example has a monthly patching cycle and sometimes more frequent for ad-hoc critical security updates. With simulations running for multiple weeks and more InfoWorks users moving to cloud…5 votes -
Add US and DS HGLs for links
Currently ICM link results report the US and DS total head values. As a user, I'd like to see the HGL at the US and DS locations consistent with the node results. This would be useful on graphs and long sections.
