How do I set the exact coordinates of a room?

Post by armanschwarz »

Hi, newbie here. Thanks for creating an awesome tool!

I have a room that is slightly off from a wall. I can zoom in and try to get it to mostly line up, but that's a bit messy. Is it possible to just set the coordinates of an existing room somehow, or allow it to "snap" against a wall like when you're creating it?

I have the advanced move plugin, which lets me move an object relative to its existing position, but I don't seem to have any way of knowing what the current position is so that doesn't help me either.

Thanks in advance.

When you select a room the corner points of the room become visible. You can drag those points to the wall corners and a larger dot will appear when it is snapped into the corner. (This is of course with magnetism on.)
You can also select the room, right click it, and from the context menu select "Recompute room points". This will redraw the room and is especially convenient when you have moved doors. This will recalculate the room around the doors.
