smile   Dimensioning
Hello and good afternoon
am new and use the google translator.
I have the free version and am getting used to it.
My question: I used the dimensioning via the menu.
Exact dimensioning with the mouse is very difficult.
Can you set the exact dimension with the keyboard?
Thanks for your help!!

Re: Dimensioning
Yes, press <Enter> to be able to enter the right value while drawing a wall, a room or a dimension line.

Re: Dimensioning
Would it be difficult to add dimensioning to floor size after creation similar to the 'modify furniture' dialog?
Sometimes it's difficult to get everything exactly right on the first try.
PS I just started using and so far VERY impressed with this program. Very stable, not a single crash. Amazingly intuitive.

Re: Dimensioning
I don't believe that adding automatically dimension lines is a good thing, because they would never be placed as the user wishes. Double-clicking on wall / room / furniture sides is fast enough to create and place the ones you'll need, isn't it?

Re: Dimensioning
It is quite easy to get the dimensions right with the mouse. Just zoom in far enough and the mouse movement become very precise.
