Concrete Wall Module - Edge Bars and other questions [ACI]

How do I get robot to place edge bars farther apart than 5" on center, I have tried every setting available to me and the calculation results in bars at 5" on center no matter the size of the edge element.

 

Design with a very short edge element:

Design with a "long" edge element:

The design worked with the short element so why is Robot placing so many bars in the longer element, I'm not finding a code section that would limit the spacing to the apparent 5"+/- that robot is using.

Secondary questions is how do I layout user bars, whenever I try to delete the program designed bars Robot 2022 crashes completely.

 

once again this is a topic where the Robot manual provides almost no information.
