Hi Pam,

If your question means the lot levels, berms, etc--> I'll assume that the topo design you mentioned is a graphic with the topographic information of your lot. I will call it "mylot,jpg" --> In order to draw your topography lines--> Power Tools--> Topo Designer--> Design--> Load Topography trace image--> load "mylot,jpg"--> (resize if necessary)--> trace the topo lines, curves, etc--> Save As ... --> Close the power Tool

2 - If the lot dimensions doesn't fit in the current Punch workspace (the white square)--> Power Tools--> Topo Designer--> Design--> Lot properties --> Save As ... --> Close the power Tool

If you question means the hand drawings of the elevations of your house--> use this feature--> Power tools--> Photoview--> File name --> open. You can import the drawings to be used in liveview. In the plan you will see a line (the "board" where the picture is) and in live view you will see a background, house, etc --> After you import the picture, you can try different options, as you can see in these images. I started with a picture inserted in the Punch work space and I added (drag and drop) the Punch objects / plants--> trellis, flowers, landscape elements, etc

In the image linked below, the house of the left is a picture. The addition on the right and the shutters are Punch's

Notice that the imported picture, is just a 2d board and you can't modify it after you imported it
To modify the picture (before you import it), you can use the Photo Editor Power Tool (if you've this tool) or you can use any other image program (Photoshop, PSP, etc)

Hope this helps

Hi there,

You can open the object in the 3D workshop --> ungroup the elements --> resize the elements choosing a reference point --> save to library or close the 3D workshop saving the changes
