Is there a minimum nozzle spacing in YARD MAP?

I just purchased two Rachio 3 from Costco to replace two RainMachines that were becoming unreliable.

I am trying to set up the YARD MAP, but it isn’t working very well. I gave up trying it on my phone screen. I connected my phone to a 32" monitor using Samsung Dex, and, surprisingly, it seems to be worse.

I am impressed that it allowed me to draw triangles around widely spaced trees in one of my zones – non-contiguous areas is a nice feature!

However, it ignores most of my taps or clicks! After a lot of struggle, I have the areas for about 5 of my zones very crudely mapped out (with 19 zones still to do).

Is there a minimum spacing for emitters within the zone? I am having trouble adding enough emitters to my drip zones. Also, I have two 1.2" tree bubblers for each tree, but I think I am running into a minimum emitter spacing issue.

The yard map doesn’t do anything. It's just documentation.
