Create Terrain

In Landshape, there are two methods to create terrain.

1. Create by Plot

Plot is a tool in Landshape. Plot lets you draw a rectangle, and fill it with fresh new terrain.

Plot always makes a terrain footprint that is rectangular.

2. Create by Form

Form is Picker. In Landshape, this means that you select control geometry to drive the results.

Compared to Plot, Form has the added advantage that you may control the elevations of your new mesh at creation.

Also, you can apply a custom rim already when starting.
