remove the base of RPC trees

[sami]

Is there a way to remove the base of RPC trees (the ones that come with Revit 2009)
I usually place them 2” below the ground so they don’t show in 3D shaded views, but in this case that won’t work (see attached image)

Here's a pretty stone-age way to fix your problem. The base will show up in coarse views but it wont render. So if you're rendering set the view to coarse otherwise medium/fine will work. If you need a different size/shape of tree you have to scale the sketches of the geometry. Hope this gets you on the right track.


Edit:
Disregard the added parameters sf1 and sf2 those are left over from attempting to make the geometry scale with the height of the tree.

Thanks, this works, it would of been good if something like this was built into all the RPC trees..
