Plant Annotation - Ticks, etc. should be definable by style

[ScottLebsack]

I think the plant symbol annotation - polygons, tick, tick size, etc. should be definable by the plant style. I appreciate the ability to mass plants, except for the fact that it eliminates the ability to show more than one object when massed - generally a trunk/center mark. The ticks allow me to work around this "bug?" by placing center marks for my plants in the OIP, but, I cannot set this by style, so spend unnecessary time selecting similar and setting them to be consistent, there is added difficulty building legends in annotative space and going back and forth to check the tick setting for a dozen plant symbols in order to have them match. While we're at it, providing an irregular 3-dot pattern for multi-trunk trees would be useful, too, or letting users create custom ticks?

Yes please, all great suggestions, by style and custom!

I turning on massing of the plants in Style, leave tag Class on, and set Tags to None in Object Info. Massing often makes a mess of styles so I edit 2D Style to remove interior graphics.
