Plant Images in Worksheet

[Danilo]

I cannot get plant images to display in a worksheet when the image is data from a Plant Object used in a Landscape Area. Am I missing something here?

landscape area.vwx plant object.vwx

Nobody biting on this one? This is kind of a big deal for me. Anyone else having this problem or am I doing something wrong?

I've looked at it a lot, in depth, never found a solution, altho' I'm only using 12, but have heard of no changes that would do it.

I don't use Landmarks or Plants much (hardly every unless I am trying to help someone), so I don't know if there is a difference between VW2015 and VW2021.

 

The Plants that are part of the Landscape area do not show the photos.

If I add an extra plant outside of the landscape are and remove the Summarization, then that row will display the photos.

 

I think the issue is that Landscape Area's don't actually use full Plant Styles. I think it just pulls the symbol images and name data into the version it uses.

 

So the best workaround I can suggest right now is to create a separate "Legend" layer and put one instance of each plant there to get the photos.

 

Sorry.

@Pat Stanford @unearthed thanks for the feedback.  Glad is not just me but disappointed that this issue has been around so long without being addressed. Hopefully this finds its way onto the "fix it" list. @Pat Stanford, yes, that is a similar workaround that I have been using. Thanks!
