-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 If you copy paste a hut you can resize it by holding down Ctrl+alt while in select mode and then left-dragging the mouse (ctrl+shift will rotate the selection). This lets you quickly reuse the pasted building and then scale it to the appropriate size.
Also, sometimes easier than copy pasting is to select a single hut and then press ctrl+d to duplicate it (like with paste it will appear centered on your mouse). This can work effectively when there are 2 or 3 different sizes of huts, select the size class you want, duplicate as necessary, switch to the next size class, repeat, etc. - -AndrewBuck On 12/19/2014 12:44 PM, Tomas Apodaca wrote: > I've been tracing a lot of gers/yurts in Mongolia recently which > are also circular buildings.
