Exporting FloorPlan with Dimensions

Post by adambl »

Hi there -

I'd like to send the floor plan I've created of my house to a designer who does not use SweetHome3D. Is there a way to export an image that includes all of the dimensions I've input so that anyone can view it?

Thanks,
Adam

Maybe the Auto Dimensioning plugin can do what you want.

1. Set printing: File->Page setup...
2. Print to PDF: File->Print to PDF...
3. Send the PDF file.

The easiest way to get a plan with dimensions is to make a Printscreen with the PrtScr key on the keyboard. Not the entire screen but just the selected part with the mouse. The image is located in the Scrennshot directory.

My previous answer is useful when you need to export the plan with scale.
Wile you have specified already the dimensions, the plan scale isn't mandatory.
For this purpose exist ExportPlanImage plugin.
After install you will find it under Tools menu.
It can export the plan (selected level) as .PNG or .JPEG at different qualities.
