    Part 5J. Snow

    1. The next to last category in the Land Cover Task Mode is Snow Effects. Double-click it to create a new Component, called Snow.

    Screenshot of the Snow Editor tool, showing settings for Name, Priority, Vector Placement, and options like "Make Entire Ground Transparent" and "Feather Edges," with no vectors linked to the effect.

    2. Snow has a Rules page, just like Ecosystems. The difference is that the Elevation Line is the lower limit of its coverage, not the upper. Change the Elevation Line to 2065 meters.

    3. Render a preview.

    A digital interface displays a landscape with a row of bare trees on grassy terrain, snow-covered hills in the background, and a large curser on the right side.
