EDITING WALLS

A selected wall can be edited in a variety of ways:

• When a wall is selected, dimension numbers show its length and distance from other nearby walls. These dimensions can be moved by dragging, and you can choose to use centimeters, meters, inches, or feet by tapping the Settings button. You can also prevent these dimensions from being dragged or turn them off entirely in Settings if you wish.
• To move a wall, tap to select it, then drag its Move handle. Walls can be moved perpendicular to their length.
• To move a selected wall with greater precision, tap a dimension indicating its distance from another, parallel wall and input the desired distance using the keypad or compatible Bluetooth laser meter. Note that dimensions can be entered with accuracy of up to three decimal places but that dimension labels in 2D Plan View display whole numbers only.
• To connect a compatible Bluetooth laser meter to Room Planner, tap the Settings button, then tap Bluetooth Measuring Devices.
• To create angled walls, tap to select a wall and then drag the Endpoint handle at either end to change its length and/or angle. The adjacent wall’s length and/or angle will also change.

When two rooms are bumped together, their adjacent walls merge. If two rooms are touching and one of them is pulled away from the other, their common walls split into separate walls again.

ADDING OPENINGS

A selection of doors and windows can be found in the Library . Search or browse to find one that meets your needs, then drag it into the drawing. Doors and windows will automatically snap into the nearest wall.

Doors and windows can be edited much like other objects. In addition, a selected door's Hinge Side and Swing Direction can be changed by tapping its edit buttons.

In addition, an entire wall can be specified as Visible or invisible in its specification dialog: tap the Information button. If a wall is made invisible, any doors or windows in it will be deleted.
