How do I change the width of the sprinkler arc patterns?

Prior to placing sprinkler symbols on the design, open the Irrigation Preferences command from the Options/Info menu in RainCAD. On the Sprinklers tab, set the Arc Pattern Line Width. This will affect all new symbols placed on the design. This will not affect any existing symbols on the design. To change existing arc pattern line styles on the design:

1. Open the drawing and make sure the arc patterns are visible.
2. Turn on the Selection Filter (Shift + F) from the DesignCAD Edit menu.
3. In the Selection Filter dialog box, click on the Layer tab.
4. Click on an arc pattern layer such as Layer 720 – Turf Sprays Arc Patterns and then click on the Add --? button.
5. With the Selection Filter dialog box still open, drag a window around the sprinkler symbols to select the arc patterns.
6. Open the Info Box (Ctrl + I) from the DesignCAD View menu.
7. Click on the Line Style icon near the top left corner of the dialog box.
8. Select a new line style form the drop down menu and set a scale and width as necessary.
9. Click on the OK button to accept the changes.
10. Close the Selection Filter and Info Box dialog boxes.
