Drawing layers in a floor plan? Using levels?

Post by mimalue »

How can I use multiple drawing layers to separate different parts of a plan of one room? I want to place the floor plan, dimensions, furniture, and other elements on different layers so I can print various combinations of these elements.

Create levels of same elevation (plan menu or right clic on a level)
Give them a name and order them
Manage your various combinations with the plug-in https://github.com/shlomoswidler/sh3d-l ... ses/latest

This is a great question! Using multiple drawing layers is definitely the way to go for organizing your room plan. By putting the floor plan on one layer, dimensions on another, and furniture on a third, you'll have incredible control. It's almost as strategic as playing the Google Snake, carefully maneuvering each element into its proper place for optimal viewing and printing. This method makes it so easy to toggle visibility for different print layouts.
