Inverting Terrains

Since the Terrain Editor uses brightness to determine altitude, you can change mountains into canyons by inverting the black and white values in your image.

To invert your terrain image:

1. Click the Elevation tab.
2. Click the Invert button, or press Cmd/Ctrl+I.
   
   
   
   All the black areas of your image become white and white areas become black.

• Original terrain:
  
  
• Inverted terrain:
  
  

To gradually invert your terrain image:

1. Click and drag to the right over the Invert button.
2. The black areas in the Terrain Canvas progressively turn white.
