gif/plantstudio00090000.gif Click the Drawing tab.
gif/plantstudio00090000.gif Make your changes to the items below, then click OK.

Drawing preferences that affect the main window
gif/plantstudio00090000.gif Use plant bitmaps
, Upper limit on memory devoted to plant bitmaps: See
Using plant bitmaps.
gif/plantstudio00090000.gif Click Change Custom Drawing Options to bring up the
custom drawing options window.

Drawing preferences that affect the whole program
gif/plantstudio00090000.gif Background color behind plants
: See
Changing the background color.
gif/plantstudio00090000.gif Transparent color for overlaying plants if using plant bitmaps: This is the color used to make the
plant bitmaps transparent so PlantStudio can overlay them on the screen. It should be a color you NEVER use in your plants. White and black are good choices.
gif/plantstudio00090000.gif Show drawing progress: This determines whether the program takes the time to fill in those little progress bars on the main window, breeder, and time series window while it is drawing plants. This makes drawing go a little slower, but it gives you feedback.
