Any plans for more robust drainage features - independent of what you can do with ref notes? Maybe even a separate ribbon category?
More specifically, I would like:
1 - a way to call out rim elevations and invert elevations on the same spot elevation tag and label pipe with a size, length and slope based on my spot elevations. Or, have the rim and invert elevations called out based on the length of pipe and slope I want.
2 - a way add different classes of drain pipe to the project and size that pipe manually (I do that with ref notes, layers and match properties now)...or, if land f/x is feeling ambitious, let me draw the watersheds for each catch basin and allow the user to enter a maximum storm intensity and let it size pipe (also resize pipe if the storm intensity is changed)
3 - drainage system schedules
4 - more standard details for common drainage system components.
5 - a drainage webinar to maybe get some more ideas about how to get the most out of the software as it exists today for drainage plans.
Thanks for all you do already!

We absolutely intend to get into exactly these features you describe.
I definitely appreciate you carefully laying them out like that -- it's good to get a sense for exactly the capability you need.
Most of what you list is really quick easy. As you note, automatically sizing the pipes is definitely more ambitious.
But most of what you mention is already on our radar for this year. Many thanks for clarifying it a bit.
