IrriCad Team,
In the feature of Subdivide Block we are able to split blocks either by equal row numbers or unequal row numbers by use of the multiple function. The issue I find is that when we have a slight variation in row numbers it is difficult to tell from which end IrriCad has begun it's subdivison.
I would like to see the ability to show not just the Area (Ha) of each block, but also the row numbers of each block. From this we would know from which end IrriCad has begun the subdivision and adjust accordingly.

Re: Sub Divide Block - Row Numbers
Hi Matt,
It currently already shows the number of rows in a block, in the same location as the area.
Block begins the split from the first boundary that you drew in from which it took the row direction from. ie if you begin drawing the block from the left hand side, then the first split will begin from the LHS. If you begin from the right, then the break will begin from the RHS.
If you want it to start the split from the opposite end. ie If you started from the LHS and you want it to begin the split from the RHS, then you would "Change" lateral direction, but select same direction, but from the RHS and you will begin break from RHS. (it becomes a little more complicated/tricky when ends aren't square to rows)

Gennaro,
To clarify...I think what Matt is saying is after you have made your selection on how to subdivide the block, the preview screen should show the number of rows also and not just the area size.
