Title: Feat Request - a global obtion to show 'cutom placeholder'
Post by: MN4869 on December 06, 2016, 10:57:44 PM
This custom placeholders may be a card (or two card setup) with a small preview render of what the forest item looks like (would use the preview render of the items that comes with the tree packs for example).

Would allow users to quickly establish item placement when using proxies that are difficult to recognize visually, even with mesh mode enabled, or when mesh mode would kill your max file.

Can currently do this but it is a bit of a hack, and is quite convoluted.

Hi,

Thanks for your suggestion, we'll evaluate it. Let me mention, that in addition to multiple Display modes (you can use different modes for each Forest object), an useful way to distinguish used items within one Forest object, is to use the Display - Viewport - Use Color ID feature.

Best regards,
