In this entry, I'll describe a method which works for totally irregular garden shapes. <ol> <li>Edit the garden plot size to a rectangle which is somewhat larger than the garden.</li><p></p> <li>Measure the size of the garden along its longest point. Create a <a href="./Dimensions.html">dimension line</a> the size of the measured line.</li><p></p> <img src="../Images/GS_IrregularBorders1.png" height="200" width="315" border="1" hspace="4" vspace="4" /><p></p> <li>At regular intervals, measure in both directions away from the original line. It's best to use the intervals of the grid on GardenSketch so that you can use the grid to align the measurements at right angles.</li><p></p> <img src="../Images/GS_IrregularBorders2.png" height="200" width="277" border="1" hspace="4" vspace="4" /><p></p> <li>Click the <a href="./AddingLines.html">drawing tool</a> and the freehand <a href="ShapeTools.html">shape tool</a>, and draw a line around the outside of the dimension lines. If you need to draw the shape in multiple lines, then you can use the "Combine" menu item to combine the lines into one shape.</li><p></p> <img src="../Images/GS_IrregularBorders3.png" height="200" width="320" border="1" hspace="4" vspace="4" /><p></p> <li>Drag the shape to its final location and erase the dimension lines.</li><p></p> <img src="../Images/GS_IrregularBorders4.png" height="200" width="341" border="1" hspace="4" vspace="4" /><p></p> <li>You may want to drag a <a href="./AddingBackgrounds.html">backdrop</a> into the garden area. If you choose a backdrop of wood chips, then GardenSketch will compute the volume of wood chips required in the shopping list report.</li><p></p> </ol> |
