Creating Plant Geometry for the Plant Definition

The plant geometry in a plant definition can easily be created from an existing plant symbol in the file or in the plant libraries, from another symbol, from drawing objects in the file, from another plant, from automatically generated 3D geometry, or from an image.

When the Vectorworks Landmark product is installed, a generic plant objects library is included, and more plant content including 2D and 3D plant symbols is available for download. A selected plant is automatically imported into the current file and displays in the Resource Manager; see Resource Manager.

Plants can be placed in the drawing with just the plant geometry; see Adding Plants to the Design. The plant data can be added to complete the plant definition when the plant geometry is created, or it can be added later; see Adding Plant Data to a Plant Definition.
