Converting a hardscape object to different configuration
After creation, a boundary hardscape object can be converted to a pathway hardscape object, and similarly, a pathway configuration can be converted to a boundary configuration. The conversion preserves the appearance, but the path of the object changes.
From the Object info palette, a different 3D Type can also be set for a hardscape. For example, a boundary hardscape with a 3D Type of None can be changed to an Aligned Slab type. (An alert dialog box warns you if existing vertices will change in elevation.) Pathway hardscapes cannot be switched to any slab type of hardscape, but they can first be converted to boundary hardscapes, and then to one of the slab types.
To convert a boundary hardscape object to a pathway hardscape configuration:
Select the boundary hardscape object.
Right-click on the hardscape object and select Convert to Pathway from the context menu.
To convert a pathway hardscape object to a boundary hardscape configuration:
Select the pathway hardscape object.
Right-click on the hardscape object and select Convert to Boundary from the context menu.
Alternatively, click Hardscape Settings from the Object Info palette of a selected hardscape object, and select the configuration.
