I've been trying to insert Rain Bird 5000 rotor heads into a project. These heads come in both full circle and part circle. According to Rain Bird documentation (and my personal experience), part circle heads can rotate from a 40 degree arc to a 360 degree arc and full circle heads rotate 360 degrees, of course. The problem I'm having is that when I place heads into my plan I am only able to designate a full 360 degree, a third of a circle, quarter circle, or a half circle. I am not able to fine tune to any degree beyond that. The specific problem I am encountering is that I would like to place a rotor head at an outside corner of a building and have the head rotate 270 degrees. This doesn't appear to be possible with the software. Might I be doing something incorrectly? Thanks.

You have selected an MPR model of the 5000's.
The MPRs include the fixed arc nozzles explained here.
It does look like we need to improve our series descriptions, to make this more clear which have fixed arcs and which do not.
