  4. Tree Transparency Issue With Color Render – Trees Are Opaque

Plant Color Render: Color Shrub Area and Groundcover Hatches Won't Turn Off

Issue

You're using our Color Render tool to color Shrub Area or Groundcover hatches, and the color hatches are not turning off when you turn off Color Render.

 

These color hatches may also be duplicating in your plan whenever you use Color Render.

 

 

Cause

Old style of Land F/X Color Render hatch

You may have our old Color Render style hatches assigned to these plants. These old color hatches consisted of a color hatch overlain by a pattern, as in the example to the right.

 

Our system now uses the color hatch assigned to the plant's color symbol, in addition to the hatch assigned to the 2D symbol.

 

 

Solution

1. Open our Edit Plant tool and edit the plant(s) whose hatches aren't turning off.

Select a new color symbol in the Plant Info dialog box.

 

 

2. Delete the color hatches in the plan that are not turning off.

 

Your color hatches should now turn on and off as expected.
