Land00037.pngEditing plant instances

Plant properties

As plants are placed, they take on the properties of the associated plant style and/or the properties in the Plant Preferences dialog box.

For multi-plant placement options, edit the polygon defining the plant with the Reshape tool if necessary; the plant placement automatically adjusts to fit the new shape.

Triangular and rectangular plant arrays include a special plant alignment control point, which indicates the center of a representative plant in the array. If moved, the array shifts to reposition the array about the new plant center.

Plant object parameters that are not defined by the plant style can be edited from the Object Info palette and from the Advanced Plant Preferences dialog box when it is accessed from the Object Info palette. Changes made for the selected plants apply only to those plant instances; changes are not reflected in the plant style or preferences. Plant parameters are described in Plant preferences and Advanced plant preferences. Only the parameters that are different are described here.

See Concept: Visão geral sobre Plantas for a discussion of the relationship between plant styles and the preferences for an individual plant instance.
