Shade Sail
Create a shade sail from a rectangular outline and configure its posts and sail settings.
Create a shade sail from a rectangle. The wizard configures its anchor posts and fabric, then reviews the result before Apply. A circle or arbitrary polygon is not accepted as an equivalent input.
Prepare the input and open the wizard
Draw the rectangle in the main editor first, then choose Shade Sail 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 anchor heights
In the Posts panel, use Individual post heights or an offered Height presets. An anchor post is added at every sail corner. Inspect the height differences and resulting fabric shape in the preview.
Set the fabric appearance and tension
Use Fabric tension to choose the offered tension level and set the fabric and post appearance through the available material controls. Tension describes the model’s drape; it is not a structural load calculation.
Record a product specification only when known
UV Protection is labeled as a product specification shown in estimates. Enter a value only when it is supported by the actual product information. The application does not test or certify the fabric’s UV performance.
Check and apply
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.
Edit the object later
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.
