If you want to modify the name or the 3D attributes of a set of rooms, select these
rooms and choose Plan > Modify rooms....
The values of the attributes that are different from one room to another in the selected rooms set,
will appear blank in the rooms pane. |
|
Use the menu items of Plan > Modify text style submenu to change the size or the style of the
texts displaying the name and the area of the selected rooms. |
|
If you want to set different colors or textures on different parts of the floor of a same room, create a
room for each part and change their color or texture. |
|
The elevation of the floor of a room is always equal to the elevation of the level the room belongs to (i.e. 0 if no level was added to home). If the room isn't at the last level, the elevation of the ceiling will be equal to the elevation + the height of the level it belongs to. Otherwise, the height of the ceiling of a room is computed at each
point of the room, and the height at each of these points is equal to the height of the closest start or
end point of a wall. This allows to create the ceiling of a garret when you set different heights at the
start and end points of sloping walls. |
|
The ceiling of a room is visible only from below, meaning you'll be able
to see it only when Virtual visit is selected. This allows you to
always see the interior of the edited home when Aerial
view is selected, whether Display ceiling check box in room pane is selected or not. |
|
If you want to
disable the activated magnetism on wall intersection points and for the angles of the lines you draw, hold
down the shift key while moving points, or disable magnetism in the preferences pane.
|
|
If the objects selected in the plan contain walls, rooms, furniture, dimensions and texts, all these
objects will be moved with a drag and drop or the keyboard arrows. If you keep the ctrl key (or under Mac
OS X, the alt key) pressed while
you drag and drop these objects, they will be duplicated. |
|
The unit displayed by default for the area depends on your country. You may switch
to Centimeter, Meter, Millimeter or Inch in the preferences pane. If Inch is the chosen
unit, the room areas will be displayed in square feet, otherwise they will be displayed in square meter. |
|
Choose the items of the menu Plan > Modify text style
to modify the size and the style of the font used
to draw the name and the area of a room. |
