Mac Simmer here! I am in desperate need of creative ideas to solve a problem.

After the update from 32bits to 64bits in 2020, the cheat 'boolprop dontmergenhflora false' does not work any more for The Sims 2 Super Collection on Mac. (see this thread for more information)

What does this cheat do? It makes decorative hood trees appear in lot view, even when such trees are far, far away. Without this cheat, decorating the hood with beautiful trees is almost useless. And this is exactly what happens on Mac. But I love decorating hoods

---> Can anyone think of a way to circumvent this problem? <---

In particular, I have thought of the following possibility: while deco trees do not appear in lots, the other types of hood deco (such as rocks, bridges, barns...) do appear in lot view! So maybe...
1) Would re-categorizing the trees make them appear from lot view?
2) If so, is there any way to re-categorize trees, from the 'flora' section to one of the other 'hood deco' sections (such as with the rocks, bridges...)?
3) Alternatively, do you know of any CC trees that are already categorized in these (admittedly odd) locations and not under 'flora'?

Thank you very much for your help

And if you can think of another solution besides my (possibly fruitless) idea of re-categorizing trees, do not hold back. Please help a fellow Simmer who has to play on Mac (and cannot bootcamp/partition it)
