Change the plant or plant quality
Each plant used can be changed. Either by replacing it with a new plant, by choosing a new quality or by changing the distribution.
Functionality
Im Mass tree the group or the object must be marked where a change is to be made. It is also possible here for an object to be changed which has inherited the plant assignment, i.e. the assignment was made on a higher level.
A change in the type of plant or the quality happens via [To edit] in the tab plants. distribution and thus the calculation of the number of pieces is changed in the lower area. In both cases, the plant to be changed must first be marked in the table above.
All changes are automatically inherited by subordinate groups and objects.
Exception: Was in the tab plants If a change is carried out in a subordinate group or an object (distribution, quality or addition of further plants), this is considered a manual change ⇒ this group or this object then takes over the properties not automatically.
For these cases there is in the area Update from two special options that can be activated and can thus qualify the exception described above.
Is All activated, the settings of all subordinate groups and objects are completely overwritten, regardless of whether there is a new distribution, a different quality or additional plants that have been added.
Is qualities activated, all subordinate groups and objects are searched for the plant whose quality has been changed. Only this quality of this plant is updated.
Copy plants in the drawing
With the command DCOPY (please refer Copy with objects) plants can be copied multiple times in the drawing. The difference to the normal command COPY lies in the fact that if the objects are also in Object manager have been recorded, must be copied here.
The command is therefore very suitable for copying individual plants (solitary plants or single trees), for example.
Copy plants in the drawing along lines
With the command LCOPY (please refer Linear copying with objects) plants can be copied along existing lines. The application corresponds to the command Occupy the line with blocks. The difference to the command Occupy the line with blocks lies in the fact that if the objects are also in Object manager have been recorded, must be copied here.
Therefore, the command is very well suited, for example, to plant existing plants linearly (planting alleys or hedges).
