Management Symbol text size

Post by aridzv »

Hi.
is it possible to control\change the text size in managment symbol?
see attached screenshot that emphasizes the problem - text in red circle is to big and the text in the blue circle is ok.
thanks,
Ari.

Thank you for your question.
Currently there isn't any setting to change or set the size of the management symbol text.
The text size is based on a fairly complicated routine using the dimensions of the area, with the text height is related to the larger dimension of the block / shape. It does fit better into 'squarer' shapes than 'thin' shapes, as seen in your example.
There may be a potential improvement that could be added in the future.

In the mean time you can explode the management symbol (once placed via Draw|Management Symbol) and edit the text as required. Note that once exploded, the management symbol will no longer be dynamic with any future changes to the management (Assign Zones to System Flows)

Hi jo and thaks for the reply!!
i will do that (explode & edit) after exporting to bricscad - it is more simple to do it there.
I have another question on the same subject:
some of the irrigation areas are corrupt (see attched screenshot),
and one area - area No.32,Although Appears in the managmet table and assigned to system flow 8, in the managment symbol it is assigned to system flow 0 - which means that it is not assigend.

is there a way to fix those issues or shuold I export it to bricscad,explode and edit there?
thanks again,
Ari.

Dear Ari,

Please send your design through to us or Netafim for analysis. There are different management symbol options available (in the registry) which may work better with this design or we may be able to see and find the cause of the several different issues.

Hi Jo and thanks for the reply.

1. about contact NETAFIM - will do.
2. I manged to re-generate the managment symbol by going to Design -> Assign Zones To System Flow -> OK -> Save&Exit without changing anything.
it re-generated the symbol and solved the problem.

regards,
Ari.
