I got the veggie bundle from Vue and it said that you could adjust the colors of the (boney clumps?sp) the flower thingies. Mine all come up white with no option to change the color. There is no + sign next to the mesh to change the color either. It's all one mesh with no option to change the flower color. Does anyone know how to change the flower color. The title and web page from Vue say it's easy to change the color, but I see no options? Thanks, Dave

This is how I got it to work: 1) select the bonny clump 2) from the display menu, select "display material summary" 3) right click the "bonny petal" frame. Select 'edit material' from the context menu. 4)make sure you are in the "color" tab - it usually defaults to this tab. 5) in the 'color production' frame, you'll see two boxes - the first contains a graph, the second a solid color. 6) right click the second box, choose 'edit color map' from the context menu 7) click the 'new keycolor' button and select the color you want. 8) close all of the windows and when you render the petal color should be the color you selected. 'Easy' is a relative term, but this doesn't seem very 'easy' to me -- maybe I'm going about it the hard way, though. Are there any Vue pros out there that know the 'easy' way?

Hi Dave, I created several very detailed tutorials for plants (not only bunny clumps) and also to help beginners. You can find it at : http://www.multimania.com/arte/indexeng.html Guitta

Guitta's tutorials are excellent very well explained and me a computer dumby(not so much anymore,lots of problems many hours on the phone with tech support(not with Vue though)) can follow her tutorials very easily. Marge

If you need "new" tutorials, you have to tell me what are your problems. I don't know what kind of tutorials you need :-) Guitta

Rangdalf, there is already a big tutorial in PlantStudio. You find it in the Platstudio Top Menu under HELP. I will do a tutorial with pictures for it, but this takes time. Do you have a homepage ? Guitta
