Paul N Posted May 25, 2022 Share Posted May 25, 2022 Hello, I have different size canopy trees surrounding the property. I created a plant symbol for each canopy size. I was able to cluster the group of trees that were the same canopy size/ plant symbol but I cannot cluster different tree plant symbols. How do I go about this issue? Thanks, -pd Quote Link to comment

The Plant Grouping tool is for grouping identical plants and the associated benefits of doing so. To me, it's just a tool for grouping/ungrouping identical plants that were placed using Single Placement Mode. Or, an excellent tool for ungrouping plants placed with any mode other than Single Placement Mode when you want to convert them into single plant objects. When you have a group of plants that are using the same symbol, but have differing attributes (such as spread), using a Plant Grouping destroys the variation in size. When you have a group of plants that are composed of different symbols... the tool is not designed for that purpose, hence your rejection letter from the program.

Carol Reznor Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 Hi - using the Diameter Variation (Plant Style > Appearance) could help you out if it is just a matter of Graphics? It adjusts the size of the symbol randomly. If you need exact diameters you will indeed need to put the plants in the drawing defined one by one. 1 Quote Link to comment
