sdpatt Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 See the picture below from the layers section of Chief Talk. I have imported a png into the plan but cannot set the height above ground so the trees show over the fences and walls as in this plan. I did not bring the images in through the library as that did not allow the actual aerial view of the tree to show, just a drawing. I did the importing through File>Import>Picture.png Now when I try to open the image I can set the diameter but not the height above ground. Please help.

glennw Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 It has nothing to do with the height of the trees, it has to do with the display order. Select the tree images and open the dbx. Go to the Line Style panel...Drawing Group...scroll down and select 1 - Front. This will make the tree images draw on top of other objects. By default, images go to the very back. You can also access the same tool through the Edit toolbar which may be a better way because you get dynamic feedback as you change the order. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lbuttery Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 just guessing but plants can be placed based on age and can grow over a 20 year period maybe you need to set what age to start the plants at ? Lew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
