noobie needs help with really basic stuff

like how to move my design around on the grid, or move the grid display itself. I drew one room. I need more room on the screen to draw the rest of the house. But if I zoom out, the room retreats into the upper left corner and I can't draw another room above it. I need to be able to grab the grid and pull it downward, but no matter what I try, I can't do it, and I can't find anything in help or preferences or anyplace to be able to do this very basic function. I'm just getting started and already I'm frustrated.

Re: noobie needs help with really basic stuff

As said in the help:

The floor default size of a new home is 10 by 10 meters. If any wall, piece of furniture or room is placed out of this default surface, the plan pane will be automatically enlarged.

I think the easier way for you could be to drag and drop an object around the plan and you'll see that it will enlarge.
