We want to bring our office standard tree and shrub bubbler symbols (2 different symbols) into the LandFX library. I've added the LandFX symbols that look the least like our office standards to a test project, knowing I want to replace them (family 8 from drip emitters/D13 from bubbler heads). I'm confused as to why the DWG files for these symbols were uploaded to the blocks>graphics>irrigation>emitters folder, and not the bubbler folder (bubbler folder does not exist). Is there documentation specific to the replacement of bubbler symbols? Is it the same methodolgy as replacing spray symbols?
We have universal symbols for tree and shrub bubblers, regardless of the manufacturer. If both symbols will be in the same family, how do I ensure that our tree bubbler symbol is only selected for trees, and the shrub bubbler is only selected for shrubs?
Thanks in advance,
-Cam

Cameron,
The bubbler is a form of emitter which is why it refers to the emitter folder to find the right symbol. However, it does sound like you are still using the old symbol files. We have shifted away from the "D" symbol sets and have been using "E" symbols for a while now. This change was to allow the user to pick more than one type of emitter per project. If you want a symbol for trees and a different symbol for shrubs (but still have it be the same kind of equipment) then you would add your equipment twice, picking the "tree" symbol family and the "shrub" symbol family.
