Moving reference points in a Forest Set
« on: September 30, 2023, 11:25:26 AM »
I have a Forest Set which uses a layer containing reference points to place trees. This all works well apart from being unable to move those points around and get a live update as you get when you've just specified reference points rather than a Set.

I want to be able to move the points around to decide on the best position for them and see the change in real time, instead I have to move the point onto another layer then re-add it and then the forest object will update with the new position.

Am I missing something or is it just a quirk of using the Forest Set referencing a layer?

Hi,

That's a limitation of the "From Layers" feature implementation - you can use the Display > Update button or directly add these reference points "directly" to the Forest Set (this way, it'll be all updated automatically).

I hope that helps.

Best regards,

Thanks. I assumed as much.
