Plant Path Editing


Recommended Posts

I am having trouble with plant paths in a file using create object from shape command (plant from polyline in this instance).

 

I am using polyline polyline to create a curved hedge row.

 

Is there a way to edit the hedge row with a bezier path? This would be much easier than having to edit the polyline and re-convert to a plant.

Hi Steve

Yes, if the Plant is based on a polyline (in other words, you converted it with Poly-vertex mode active in the Plant tool, then you have two options:

  1. Double-click the plant and choose to edit the Path - this actually activates the Reshape tool, and you can then reshape the polyline as you wish. When you exit this edit mode (but orange button, top-right of the edit window), the Plant will regenerate.
  2. Simply click the Reshape tool, and then click on the Plant. Reshape as desired. The Plant will regenerate.
