When I transform a concept plant to a project plant and run the verify labels, the project plant label updates, but it is the incorrect project plant label style. Is there a setting in the preferences that I need to change so that when I transform a concept to a project plant, it updates the label to my preference setting labels?
Silly me. It would seem that a "Re-label" button would be able to just switch the block styles. Or at least a match properties like the irrigation heads switch blocks. But that's why I'm a designer and you're a WIZARD Amanda (and Jer)!
Stephanie,
You’re right, the transform tool is going to not actually replace any labels.
I can note this on our wishlist, but it’s going to be a bit more complex. In most cases, a plan would require a re-label after transforming concept plants. This is because a concept plant is a placeholder for multiple possible species. What would it do if a group label tagged 10 of Concept Tree A, but 5 were transformed to maples and 5 were transformed to oaks? This would have to just delete the label in this instance, but then also know that if all 10 were transformed to maples to just change the label to a design label instead of a concept label.
For now, you’re going to need to relabel the plan after transforming to do this.
