Full grown preview of plants, crops and trees when placing
It would be helpful if we could get a option to see the full grown tree or crops when placing them.
If you place decorative trees in narrow spaces it's really hard to tell if the grown version overlap with buildings or not. Same with crops if they are placed as decoration in buildings like greenhouses it would be nice to see if they poke through walls or windows when full grown.
Maybe we could get a toggle to switch between the current default view and a full grown version of the preview when crops are in the active slot.

Maybe with a „lock“ function so you can place a phantom of it and walk around the tree to see it from a sides etc. ? Maybe be able to rotate on the x axis and change elevation through designated keybindings like the arrow keys etc. … maybe as an addition to the overgrowth tool? -

Kydren MergedWhen planting trees and other plantable objects you should get another outline that signifies the actual size of it when it iis fully grown. I planted some trees and they grew absolutely massive.

PaulJI'd love it if plants could be toggled back to earlier states once fully grown, and when toggled back this way they don't re-grow. This way you can have young tree saplings as decorations.
Also there should be a gardening tool, similar to the build hammer, to toggle the display of these options rather than simply making them always available. That way if you're just walking around you can admire how your plants and crops look like without having to deal with all the toggle or hotkey reminders. They should only be displayed if you have the appropriate tool equipped in the active hotbar slot.
