Edit a site plan

If you want to modify the information to appear on a site plan, you can do so at any time. To do this, click on the thumbnail representing the plan you want to modify and make updates from the following three entry points:

  • Basic options

These options are accessible from the "Plan" tab in the right-hand panel.

  • 'Dimensions' allows you to show or hide all the dimensions on the plan. By default, there are no dimensions, only free dimensions are affected.
  • 'Symbols (Plans details step)' allows you to show or hide symbols added in the "Plans details" step.
  • 'House materials' allows you to show or hide the exterior finishes applied to the building.
  • 'Trace image' allows you to show or hide the trace image layer.
  • 'Compass rose' allows you to show or hide the compass rose on the plan.
  • 'Cross section view' allows you to show or hide the lines representing the location of the cross-section plans generated for the project.
  • Add Symbols

Similarly to the 'Plan details' step, you have the option to add symbols to your floor plans.
