Perform only necessary computations

Applicable to CivilStorm, StormCAD, and probably PondPack. Sometimes we only use the software to perform certain computations. For example, we are wanting to analyze the storm sewer. The drainage areas would be connected to catchbasin elements. Ho...

SewerGEMS: Implementing tools for model skeletonization

The SewerGEMS development currently has no module, function or option to simplify the sewer network model. Such a tool is present implemented in the WaterGEMS software. It is clear that simplification on the sewer network may be more difficult to ...

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...

Improve Reporting for Drainage Reports

Overall, throughout the years I've been disappointed with the report compilation that Bentley generates. It's currently very cumbersome to generate a readable report of the computations so that they can be included in drainage reports. The "Custom...

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...

Open on selection for controls table

Sometimes you need to look at the controls for several facilities at once (e.g., two different pump stations that serve the same zone), and don't want to open the full controls table. It would be convenient to have an option to "open on selection"...

Add New Features through ModelBuilder to All Topologies

I know you can configure your [Active] topology data sets to cascade, but sometimes we inherit models that are not set up like this. When you do a bulk import, you have to then go and activate every feature set for every [Active] topology. Add a c...

Post Calculation Processor Enhancements

Currently there is only one post calculation. It's a pain to keep reconfiguring the calculator. This could be a data store like most other things in GEMS where you can make a new one, edit them, pick which ones are active or which to run after a s...

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...
