Recalculate floor

Post by qythyx »

It would be great if there was a feature to recalculate the layout of a floor, taking into account doors and such. The issue I have is that I create a set of walls defining a room and add doors to the room. Then I fill in the floor area, which automatically calculates small indents for those doors. Then I sometimes change a door. After which I need to delete and recreate the floor, which is annoying. It would be great if there was an option to just recalculate the existing floor layout.

Thanks!

If you double-click in a room (surrounded by walls), it recalculates automatically the layout of the floor. See this User Guide chapter. Don't forget to delete the last floor layout before.

VéroniQ, if you double click in a space surrounded by walls, it creates a new room and doesn’t recalculate the existing room if any. But if you cut an existing room, create a new one at the same place with a double click, then select Edit > Paste style menu item, it will perform the update you look for.

Qythyx, try the Recalculate room points item which was added to plan contextual menu in version 7.2.
You have to select a room and right click at a point where the room points should be recalculated to get this menu item. If the points don't need to be recalculated, the menu item won't appear.
