Accessory Properties
The properties used to modify an accessory are located to
the right of the screen when your accessory is selected. Only some of these
accessory properties can be adjusted right before adding the accessory to your
landscape, but all of the properties can be adjusted after it has been added.
Below is a description of each available property in the order that they appear
in the software.

the text field. |

sitting upon a pottery wheel. To rotate the accessory, move the Rotate
about Y slider or type a value in the text field. |

The Align to terrain property determines if
the accessory is automatically tilted when it is placed on uneven terrain.
If this option is disabled, the accessory will remain upright by default.
To change the automatic terrain alignment, click the Align to terrain
checkbox. |
Scale evenly |
The Scale evenly property determines
if the accessory is stretched or not when you adjust the width, depth, or
height. If you want to simply enlarge the accessory, then keep the Scale
evenly option checked. If you want to stretch the accessory in any
direction, then uncheck the Scale evenly option. |
Enable enhanced surface detail |
The Enable enhanced surface detail property
determines whether or not the accessory material will have increased
detail when viewed up close. |
