Just wanted to share with you my last project - AquaSketch
It's a nice tool designed to help you with your aquascaping - by making a sketch of your plans.
It's only the first version and it's going to improve, so please tell me what you think and make any comments or suggestions.
To remove a pot - ctrl+click on the pot in the map.
As for the edges - I'm aware of that problem, the idea was to prevent plants from poping out the sides of the aquarium.
If you use a smaller plant you can add pots more close to the edges.
Just had a play and it's very good. I like the ability to reduce the size of the plants when you add them and the ease of use. Some way of undoing after adding each plant might be good as when I went wrong I had to clear it all and start again - not too much of a hassle on a little tank but could be a pain on a large one!!! (maybe I missed that function!)
Like Berkley said hardscape would be good and it'd be nice if you could add plants right up to edges of the glass. I just tried to replicate my nano tank and there was this big gap all the way round! I don't suppose it'd be such an issue on a larger tank though.
Is it stricted to 2d or can you add plants in 3d as well - i mean as it is you can only add plants to the base of the tank, and it would be really important to have the posibilty to position them in different layers.
Well - if you want to have a way to put plants on rocks and driftwood or add height to the scape - like anubias on wood/rock and plants planted heigher than others - then you need to have that function - and in order to create debth you need height - also you might want to have a substrate that has some slooping...
It would be great if we could plant on rocks or have slooping. Unfortunetly, I think it's too complicated for that simple tool.
Maybe in the version after the next one
