Foliage Texture

You can use a uniform color, an image, or a material as the texture for leaves of a tree. All the leaves will have the same texture; you cannot vary the texture of leaves.

To use a uniform texture:

1. Click the Uniform button.
   
   
2. Click the Uniform Color swatch and choose a color from the color picker.
   
   

To use an image texture:

1. Click the Image button.
   
   
2. Click the Edit button to the right of the Image button. The Picture Library appears. Refer to "Working with Pictures" for more on the Picture Library.
   
   

To use a material texture:

1. Click the Material button.
   
   
2. Click the Edit button to the right of the Material button. The Materials Lab appears.
   
   

You can only change the material of the leaves if you access the Materials Lab through the Tree Lab. If you select a tree and access the Materials Lab or the Materials Preset Library from the Edit palette and choose a material, the material will only be applied to the trunk and branches of the tree. Refer to "The Materials Lab" for more on the Materials Lab.
