Hi charles bauduy, The elements in the "Embellishments" folder are pictures intended to be used with the Photoview Power Tool To insert them (or other picture)--> Power Tools --> Photo View--> Open--> (location of the file in your computer)--> OK--> set dimensions and elevation--> the objects will appear in liveview As they are pictures, they cannot be converted to POB (Punch objects), however, if your program has the Plant Editor Power Tool, you can create a "Plant Boulder", for example :-) Open the Plant Editor--> Open--> location of the image file--> follow the process to set the new "plant" in the library (see attached) The new "plant" will be still a picture, however, independent of the location in the floorplan, in liveview mode, it will be "looking" the camera (front view) always In my presentation movie http://www.punchhelpers.com/avitest.htmlthe man and the woman are "plants". AS you can see, the camera is rotating but they always look at the camera Hope this helps Patricia |

as far as the backrounds go, is there a way to add them to one of the material libraries so i can 3D drag them to the backround sky, like the blue sky or night time sky, or are they only able to be used in the photo view?

Hi charles bauduy,
If your program has the Power Tool called "Material Workshop" you can develop a texture with the background (MLP doesn't include this tool) Anyway, sky textures don't work in the same way that a wall or floor texture, because they must be seamless and the texture size can't be resized
If you create a texture with these backgrounds, you should apply it on a large board, and this is, basically, what the Photoview shows
I got wonderful results for the backgrounds images creating a composed panorama picture, To do this, you'll need a special sw (a panorama picture composer). There are several in the market, some of them are free
Hope this helps
