InfoDrainage - Re-Ordering Tables
Please can you add an ability to manually adjust the order of Junctions and Connections as the tables quickly become difficult to follow. The automatic re-ordering seems to reset as soon as you make any changes!

InfoDrainage - Permeable Paving
It would be useful to have a central granular conveyance trench beneath permeable paving to avoid the need for overly deep sub base beneath the road / drive.

Formatting of Reports
The output reports from Infordrainage, are not set to fit the page and as such, there is a lot of "white space" left on the outputs. At present, there are no formatting options to change this. It makes the drainage report look a bit untidy.

InfoDrainage - level bench in basin/pond configuration
The sizing calculator in the pond build pop-up enables one side lpe only.
There are now LLFAs that require level benck of at aleast 1.5 m width after 0.6 m depth in a basin.
It is currently not possible to use your calculator to establish such basin properties.
This would be useful.5 votes -
Exceedance Level in Infodrainage
It would be good to have an option in underground stormwater controls to have a separate option for exceedance level and Ground Level
By taking the exceedance level as GL, it makes the Long sections look distorted when in reality it is common for our designs to have circa. 1m+ cover from top of tanks/soakaways etc to ground level.7 votes -
Manhole Schedule Numbering
For MH tables and report outputs, it would be good to have an option to report chronologically, e.g. 1-30.
I understand it numbers them on the first Manhole built in the model however I think it would make more sense to go from shallowest to deepest, e.g. U/S to D/S. As is quite common in design additional MHs need to be incorporated further into the model due to clashes or change in direction etc, so it would be best if all outputs and MH tables followed the numerical order.9 votes -
Provide Enhanced Manhole Schedule Details
It would be great to have the option of providing an additional level of customisable detail which could be configured on MH Schedules.
As an example including practical details around the cover – contractors want to know and see more from a MH schedule when out on site.
Examples of details around the type of cover:
Cover Size
Opening Size
Recessed
Solid Top
Loading ClassCurrently this level of additional detail is often added manually to MH schedules exported from software.

manhole and pipe size files
when I start a new network, the criteria automatically selects my default manhole and pipe size file, can you change it so when importing a file for the first time it selects my standard default files, older versions did select the default file

Link from CIRIA BEST Tools
CIRIA make a tool for valuing the benefits of green infrastructure. The results enable users to understand and quantify the wider value of SuDS and natural flood management measures. Being able to include this in the drainage design when comparing scenarios would be useful.

InfoDrainage - Time of entry to be called time of entry, not time of concentration
Te has specific meaning in the UK when using the rational method (modified).
Tc also has speific meaning (Te + sumTf).
It would be better if the software wants the user to input a Te, that it calls it Te. At the moment it calls the Te Time of concentration, which is very confusing.4 votes -
"Copy to clipboard" alongside print/export on Microdrainage spreadhseet input/outputs
Would greatly simplify the process of getting results/details from MD into a report, skipping a stage in the current process (Export to CSV/Excel - Open)

Assess scenarios based on annual water balance (runoff, infiltration, evaporation)
Assessment of the annual water balance is an important criteria to evaluate drainage design at neighbourhood level.
Functionality to assess scenarios in a chart (similar to typical pre-urban vs. urban) would save time in GIS-postprocessing2 votes -

Change the size / dimensions of multiple manholes at once
MicroDrainage Network
It would be very useful if it was possible to change the dims of many manholes at once. It'a a very laborious and time consuming task to change each dimension one-by-one, especially if the network is very large!
