Importing Plant Groups (Subcategories) from a Project Template

Issue

When importing plants from a project template, you also want to import groups (aka subcategories) you've created and assigned to those plants. The groups are available from the menu in the Plant Manager pictured below.

Solution

At present, Land F/X does not allow the importing of plant groups from a template along with the plants. Here's a workaround you can use until we can engineer this ability into our software:

 

1. Import all your desired plants from the template.
