Title: Elevate raised garden bed fill
Post by: jjocsak on April 25, 2013, 09:23:41 AM

I am making raised garden beds out of 2 x 12's.
When I fill them with dirt I would like to raise the dirt 2" from the top.
How do I raise the fill?

Thanks
Jeff

Hi Jeff,

You cannot raise the Fill as it attaches to the Terrain. There are other things you can use however such as a Floor, Pad etc. It will complain about putting a soil texture on a Floor or Pad but will still work.

Thanks Allan, I tried the floor but could not edit it for some reason.
I made the raised bed out of wood rail edging that I modified to 2x12 size.

Hi Jeff,

You would have to select the floor in 3D or 2D Designers View as you cannot select a floor in plan view unless you can get its extreme edge.

I did that and I cannot select it. It must be corrupt.
I created another file and it works.

Thanks
Jeff
