    Dear Group,

    I am a landscape architect. I use adt 2004.

    1) I have been using edgesurf to make mounded surfaces but find it
    very cumbersome as I not only have to be sure there are 4 edges, but
    have to turn the UCS every which way in order to form the edges which
    must go in the z direction. Even then, the mound form is governed by
    a fairly limited set of edges. Is there a better way to do this?

    2) I am in desperate need of landscape materials such as turf,
    different types of stone, plants of different types. I find the lsnew
    and lslib very limited, hatching is okay but cumbersome on extruded
    faces. I have some 3dsin objects created in 3d Studio as meshes but
    these are also not entirely adequate. Does anyone have nice bushes,
    turf objects/hatches, soil textures, trees of various species, etc.
    either as 3d objects or as symbols in plan view?

    Thanks much,

    Michael
