10 - Super freaking small. Don’t use.

This is pretty much a useless property. Issue has been submitted to shortcut to get it fixed or hide it from customers.

Use floorplan grid dimensions legend

Use only when Use floorplan grid dimensions is enabled!

When enabled, displays this little box o' joy that indicates that one box in the floorplan grid is equal to one foot (1') of real life physical space. (Will vary for our friends who use metric.)

 

Floorplan show side texts

When disabled, leaves the wall side up to the imagination of the buyers.

Floorplan grid style

The No Grid option is redundant with the Use floorplan grid dimensions option. If you select No grid, it will override the Use floorplan grid dimensions and no gridlines will be displayed. Shortcut issue has been submitted.

Changes the way windows and doors are drawn on the wall ever so slightly. (One customer long ago wanted it one way or the other.

Floorplan width & Floorplan height

These adjust the size of the Download Floorplan option in Sales Tools. However, they work in combination as an aspect ratio. 2:1 is a good ratio for landscape (~600:260) So you’ll need to adjust both of them together to maximize the space.

Note that when you download the floorplan from within Sales Tools, these measurements are not used directly. The width in that case comes from the width of the current browser window - which can be confusing.

No clue how to use these effectively. Stay tuned for a better product. Shortcut ticket has been submitted.

Floorplan wall thickness

Recommend using a number between 1 and 5. Anything other than that will not produce good outcomes. Trust me.

Measurements font sizes

Change the Dimension label font size, but these do not yet change the font size of the component labels when the Labeling Method is “Labels on diagram” - which is kinda goofy. Shortcut Ticket.

Note these font sizes are relative to the diagram size, so you may need to adjust them together.
