Plant Database Files Gcadplus Once created and loaded into the drawing editor, there is a quick way to tag individual plant symbols and generate plant schedules. however, as demonstrated in this video, the databases can be customised and expanded to match your design team’s preferred approach to plant selection. Our gcadplus development team has designed an efficient method for creating your database that integrates seamlessly into the design space. these databases are structured as simple text files. once created and loaded into the drawing editor, there is a quick way to tag individual plant symbols.
Database Files Gcadplus Several lists are provided as part of gcadplus and a number have been provided by our users. these lists can act as a plant data file and assist greatly in plant selection and can be used over many different drawings if required. the gcadplus lists are simple text files with the extension .gcp. Our gcadplus development team has designed an efficient method for creating your own database that integrates seamlessly into the design space. these databases are structured as simple text. We use the gcadplus broadscale labelling toolbox tools to develop and label a design for planting native species in a corridor. the site owners are keen naturalists and wanted a master plan for developing a site in central victoria.
