Column Properties
The properties used to modify a column are located to the
right of the screen when your column is selected. These column properties can
either be adjusted right before adding the column to your landscape or after it
has been added. Below is a description of each available column property in the
order that they appear in the software:
Options |

Model |
The Model property determines the type of

current column. |
Material options |
The appearance of the column can be modified by
clicking the small button that appears to the right of the column
image. |

The Elevation property determines the
distance of the column from the ground. To change the elevation, move the
Elevation slider or type a value in the text

The Width property determines the size of
the column from left to right. To adjust the column width, move the Width

the column from front to back. To adjust the column length, move the Depth
slider or type a value in the text field. |

The Height property determines how tall the
column is. To adjust the column height, move the Height slider or type a

The Rotate about X property
determines the angle of the column about its X axis. If your view is
facing north, this will rotate the column forward or backward. To rotate
the column, move the Rotate about X slider or type a value in the text
field. |
Rotate about Y |
The Rotate about Y property
determines the angle of the column about its Y axis. If your view is
facing north, this will rotate the column left or right as if it was
sitting upon a pottery wheel. To rotate the column, move the Rotate about
Y slider or type a value in the text field. |
Rotate about Z |
The Rotate about Z property
determines the angle of the column about its Z axis. If your view is
facing north, this will rotate the column left or right as if it was
sitting upon the face of a clock. To rotate the column, move the Rotate
about Z slider or type a value in the text field. |
Scale evenly |
The Scale evenly property determines
if the column is stretched or not when you adjust the width, depth, or
height. If you wish to simply enlarge the column, then keep the Scale
evenly option checked. If you wish to stretch the column in any direction,
then uncheck the Scale evenly option. |
Enable enhanced surface detail |
The Enable enhanced surface detail property
determines whether or not the column will have increased detail when
viewed up close. |
