Is there a way that the number of emitters can be increased to something beyond 10 per plant size? This has been an issue for drip irrigation from Day 1. It is standard practice in the SW to have far more than 10 emitters on trees. I know some may argue to increase the GPH and lessen the quantity of emitters but that is not how drip irrigation is done with a proper pattern and spacing.
Also related, can the emitter notes that are generated in the schedule under an 'area for drip emitters' be toggled off? I have not been able to find a way to not have those lines automatically generate immediately following the drip emitter area. This is something we have to painstakingly clip out of every schedule through multiple viewports since they do not match the proper number of emitters per plant due to the issue above.
Thanks!

Joe,
We're happy to increase the number of emitters. There's no reason why it has to be 10.
That being said... what is a more realistic maximum?
More control over the emitter notes is far more involved. I'm hoping that if the maximum can be corrected, then there won't be the need to edit the notes.

The max. we have is 20 for standard tree container sizes used on 99% of projects. We can go the route of creating a custom drip emitter cluster or tree ring symbol for the rare times a specimen size (i.e. 60" box or larger) tree may arise.
This change would bring a tear to my eye!
You're correct, this would eliminate the need to alter or clip the emitter notes from the schedules and it would also allow for accurate flows on valve call outs and/or highlighted stations.
Thanks for the quick response!

Joe,
Literally just one line of code needed to be changed:
This will be part of the next update, currently scheduled for Friday.
