It would be helpful if we can add in additional layers into the bioretention filtration layers tab with individual square footages for each layer.

I did find that it is possible to force the underdain slope if you add a longitudinal slope to the bioretention, however in this specific design we do not have a longitudinal slope, but would need one for the underdrain to be
