Use a contour file to automatically set the elevation of new elements when I add them instead of having to use TRex repeatedly

I'm using WaterCAD and WaterGEMS for modeling and every time I add a new feature that is not on an already existing pipe, I need to set the elevation manually. For this I use TRex to set the elevation based on an ESRI contours shapefile from USGS....

REST API Connection

A REST API connector in WaterCad would be very useful. Bringing field data and attaching it to the hydraulic model is one of the projects that our company has been working on. Currently, there are many IOT platforms and field data can be collec...

SewerGEMS: Grey out unnecessary tools and options in ribbons

SewerGEMS software dynamically hides attributes in the object properties window that are not used at given settings in calculations. However, this approach is not applied to the options and tools visible in the ribbons. Suggestion: Tools and optio...

Add direct access single click tool for selecting all upstream and all downstream pipes.

I suggest adding separate single click direct access tool or button (Water CAD/Water GEM) to selecting upstream and downstream pipes. It has the potential to save time and improve modeller's efficiency. This selection can be done through Navigator...

HAMMER: Transient Results Viewer\Extended Node Data\Hydropneumatic Tank: the pressure or head engineering units indicated as absolute values on the Y axis. Without such mention a gauge value is assumed.

A new user looking for the first time at a pressure or head graph might be fooled by the fact that the Y axis does not mention that the units being graphed are in an absolute value. He or she might think hey I'm ok, minimum gauge value is 10 meter...

Create a valve that allows linear reduction of flow depending on closing and create a valve that has a trigger to start closing when a certain pressure is reached.

For modeling irrigation systems, cutting-edge elements such as hydrants/valves have closing rules that not only take time into consideration, but also pressure as a trigger. Furthermore, these valves have linear flow characteristics.

Create buttons to change Worksheet order in Project Explorer window of FlowMaster.

Create buttons to change Worksheet order in Project Explorer window of FlowMaster. This gives the user the opportunity to order Worksheets in a logical way as the Project evolves.

Add a toggle to disable moving elements in stand-alone applications.

It is far too easy to move elements in stand-alone WaterGEMS, such that I frequently move things by accident (thank you for easy undo). It would be nice to have the option to disable moving elements since we're 1:1 integrated with GIS and I rarely...

Allow properties of multiple elements to be edited from properties tab

Useful to be able to edit all properties for multiple elements in the properties tab. Other similar software have these capabilities. This would allow streamlining some of the editing. Also, consider allowing all properties to be edited for multip...
