ebdesign Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 Why can't I size & position the various room boxes to what/where I want? I want them to snap to my grid (12") & drag the sides to align w/ others. I can't get the room boxes to snap to the grid. The filleted corners are not a snap point & neither are the sides. Why doesn't the displayed size match the actual size of the rectangle? I haven't used this tool in a while, but since I have a rough paper drawing of the floor plan in "boxes", I thought I would give it another go.

mcrump Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 I wish I had the ability to name the boxes any name I want and not just Chief's names. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lbuttery Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 Since 2004 I have seen maybe 3-4 users post that they use/like the Space Planning tool I found its limitations too annoying to be of any use Lew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebdesign Posted September 11, 2014 Author Share Posted September 11, 2014 Well, I don't know what's not to like about it. Once I had the boxes arranged, 2 clicks to get to here. It works pretty darn good; better than I remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicinus Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 I like them too, and it feels like just a few changes would make them even more useful, like stated above, being able to define your own name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard_Morrison Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 The space planning tools are a huge time-saver if you know how to use them properly, and allow you to discuss various room arrangements with clients without getting them focused on details like doors and windows. I'd definitely like to see a custom-naming feature. This tools works well with additions, too. It would be great to have a video done by Chief that shows how to use this tool productively.

HumbleChief Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 I used it only once because a client had their plan drawn in a similar fashion and was also surprised at how well it worked. Also needed a couple of custom names as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
