Hello! Just downloaded today. Finding my way around. How can I view my "home" from overhead or side elevation? TIA!

There's no side elevation (i.e. using a parallel projection), otherwise you may have to learn how to navigate in the 3D view.

Thank you. Seems that I am missing the tool bar shown across the top of the example in the post from the Denmark user. I am working online in Windows. Could this be the issue? TIA for your further help!

The Online version doesn’t propose a menu bar but all the menu items are available in contextual menus, according to the pane (plan, 3D view, furniture lists) where you right click.

Is there a way to add a roof? Also, I'm still not figuring out how to "walk" through the building as well as how to fit the 3D model on one screen (zoom in/out commands?).
