Hi All,

Is there away of scaling down an RP Tree with the scale tool (Sketchup tool) and rendering it with out it rendering its original size?

Thanks

Fred

No.

The only way to make a plant smaller is to edit it and scale it in the editor and/or make it younger.

It seems like there should be a way to scale it. But if so we haven't found it yet.

OK Al,

Thanks for your reply, I'll try and edit it and see what happens!

We just figured out how to scale a plant.

We have just one scale - which applies to width and height, so we take the smallest scale of the SketchUp component and apply it to the entire plant.

If you make a plant shorter, we will make it both shorter, and thinner to match the new height.

If you make a bush less wide, we will make it both thinner and sorter to match the new width.

If you use the full X,Y,Z scaling in SketchUp, you will get the best results.

This is not in the JJ26 version, but will be in the next version.
