After the site model has been created, it can be edited in a variety of ways.
● The site model object can be copied, cut, pasted, rotated, and deleted like other objects. In Top/Plan view, the 2D Display selected for the site model is shown; if both existing and proposed models are selected for display, they are superimposed. In any 3D view, the 3D Display selected (if any) is shown.
● The site model can be textured from the Render tab of the Object Info palette. The texture is applied to the surface of the site model, and is scaled to fit the site model bounding box.
● The site model contours can be edited, changing the original source data (the existing site model) or the proposed site model as described in Editing Site Model Contours.
● Right-click on the site model and select Edit from the context menu, or select Modify > Edit Site Model. From the Choose Component dialog box, choose to edit the Site Model Settings or edit the existing or proposed contours.
● The original source data used to create the site model can be edited; this operation removes any edits to the site model contours and recreates the site model, but preserves any site modifier edits. Right-click on the site model and select Edit from the context menu, or select Modify > Edit Site Model. From the Choose Component dialog box, select Recreate from Source Data. Alternatively, right-click on the site model and select Recreate from Source Data from the context menu. Changes can be made to the source data, and the source data can be validated (see Validating 3D Source Data). Return to the site model by clicking Exit Recreate from Source Data at the top right of the drawing window. The site model is automatically updated, reflecting any source data changes.
● After generation, the site model is cached by default so that updating occurs more efficiently; however, large file sizes can result. See Document Preferences: Display Tab for information on changing the default setting.
● The site model can be modified by the various site model modifiers; see Site Model Modification Overview.
● In addition to the Site Model Settings dialog box, you can change many parameters of a selected site model from the Object Info palette.
