Pond Wizard

Draw the closed shape in the main editor first, then choose Pond in the Hardscape Add panel. Select the prepared outline when the canvas asks for it. With one compatible shape already selected, the wizard can open directly. The wizard opens a full-window workspace with a preview; it does not ask you to draw inside an inspector sidebar.

Set the water depth, then use Edge Style to choose a Style. Changing the style resets its width, height and water-level defaults. A raised edge exposes Wall thickness and water-level controls where appropriate; inspect the resulting wall and water relationship.

In Fountain, enable the fountain and choose an offered Fountain Pattern. Adjust Jet Height, Number of Jets and Ring Radius when offered. Fountain Position, Offset X and Offset Y move it relative to the pond center.

In Features, choose Wildlife or Aquatic Plants entries. Items are positioned by the feature layout; they are not freely dragged across the pond in this panel. Click an item in the placed list to remove it. The preview uses approximate locations and simplified markers in 2D/3D, with detailed models in photo mode.

Use Water Ripples, Intensity, Speed and Ambient Ripples for the offered water appearance. Ripple presentation differs between photo mode and the simplified plan/3D indicators; it is not a water-flow analysis.

Use Back and Next to inspect the wizard settings and preview. Correct any validation message before applying. Apply on the final step creates or updates the object; Cancel leaves without applying the current wizard draft.

Select the placed object to use the Inspector’s available editing controls. Whole-object wizard settings and individual Structure editor member edits are different operations. Reapplying a wizard can ask how to handle existing member edits; read that choice before confirming. In the Structure editor, Done keeps member edits and Cancel attempts to undo available changes back to entry.
