    Hi,
    I was wondering how to limit all the different kinds of vegetation when using the foliage tool. I have this gigantic list, where I have every object like 10 times and it is annoying. Is it possible to just have it show foliage from a specific route like Dresden-Riesa?

    Thanks!

    The search box in the foliage tool supports very detailed queries. I recommend you to make a list of common types of foliage that you need often, like forest or embankment etc, and then for each of these you can write down a query. If you want it to show only two specific types of foliage for example, you can put in the search box "type1 OR type2" and it will show exactly the foliage with those two names.
    For completeness, you can also use AND, NOT and parentheses in your query.

    Thanks! But is there any way the list only shows foliage from a specific route like Dresden Riesa? I have like 10 oak trees in the list. Or are all asserts with the same name the same?

    Oh I don't know how you got that to happen. You can select the ones you don't need and remove them from the foliage tool. I can't tell if they're the same with absolute certainty, but place them next to each other and judge for yourself :) Most likely yes.
