Adding a Box

The Box object is very useful in modeling because it is used so much in common objects. For example, many outdoor tables and benches would use a box for each of their legs, and the rafters of a pergola would be boxes as well.

To add a box:

1.   Click the Add Box button that appears near the top of the screen under the Modeling tab.

2.   Click an area of your landscape to place one corner of the box. Press the Esc key to cancel.

3.   Click a different area of your landscape to place the opposite corner of the box. If you would like to input the distance and angle manually, place the first corner and then press the Enter key.

The picture below illustrates a box shown in the Perspective view.
