How do I change the material of a planter bed or space?

Replace the fill material of an existing drawn shape with a different groundcover.

You can change the fill material of an existing shape at any time. For example, you can replace a shape filled with turf grass with mulch or another type of groundcover.

Steps to change the material

  1. Click on the shape to select it

  2. Click the "Edit drawing" button that appears in the footer. The original fill will be replaced with a dark, semi-transparent background. The border will also turn blue and each of the points will show up as dots

  3. Locate the space details in the right panel

  4. Click the material picker to the left of the shape name

  5. Browse the Material Library and click the desired material

Changes are saved automatically. Undo edits by clicking the "Undo" button.
