Irrigation system warnings
As irrigation components are added to the design, the Vectorworks Landmark software verifies their connection to the irrigation network, and checks the stated catalog requirements to see if the product specifications are being met. If not, an error is generated. A warning icon appears in the drawing for the selected components with an issue, and in the Object Info palette, red text indicates the nature of the problem.
To see warning icons for more than one selected object at a time, the Unrestricted Interactive Scaling mode of the Selection tool must be enabled.

A system under development may have several warnings; if the warning icons become distracting, select AEC or Landmark > Irrigation > Hide Warning Icons. To display the icons again, select AEC or Landmark > Irrigation > Show Warning Icons.
To easily identify which irrigation system components have a warning, select AEC or Landmark > Irrigation > Select Components with Warnings.
