Hi,
I used the predefined "Image" (mostly the group1.bmp) to scatter trees.
I dont understand why in the "Distribution map>Density" section the "Pixel" button is sometimes turned off.

Adjust the density with the "units" parameter performs a scaling on the bitmap used to scatter.
But when I'm happy with how the bitmap is positionned, I just want to adjust the density
and that's what the "Pixels" button does...so why is it turned off ???

Any  help?
