Gravitating Mesh objects to Mesh Surface

[Anonymous]

Hi everyone!

I'm having this problem where I can't seem to use the gravitate operation on mesh objects in order to lay them over a surface (terrain).

I use the educational version, I don't know if that's the cause. However, I've already tried other objects (regular objects, people, trees, etc.) and it doesn't seem to work anyway...

The gravitate button doesn't even light up or show signs of being operative...

Can anyone please help me out with this?

There are element types that can gravitate to the surface of certain element types, e.g. Wall, Column, Beam, Object etc.
And there are element types that other elements can gravitate to. These are: Slab, Roof, Shell, Mesh.
These element types cannot gravitate to other element types. Only other element types can gravitate to them. This is why the Gravity button is grayed when these element types are active.
