Access the Measurement Wizards

Follow these steps to access the Measurement Wizards.

1. After you have drawn your floor plan, click Windows etc. mode.
   
   
   
   
2. Click or tap Measurement Wizards. Four wizards appear:
   
   
   - Room Measurements - adds inside wall measurements to all the walls in a room.
   - Wall Measurements - adds inside or outside measurements to a single wall.
   - Room Dimensions - adds length and width room dimensions to the center of a room.
   - Outside Measurement - adds length and width of the entire drawing. 

Add Inside Wall Measurements to a Room

1. Click Room Measurements and then click on a room.
2. Arrow lines and wall length text labels appear.
   
   

Tips:

• The above example shows the default settings for Inside Room Measurements (arrow point slightly away from the wall, etc). You can easily edit individual arrows and text once you have placed them - see Edit Individual Measurements below.
• You can also adjust the default Measurement Wizard Settings. For example, if you always want each arrow point to be placed so that it touches the wall, or if you want to set a different standard distance between each line and its parallel wall.

2. Arrow lines and wall length text labels appear next to the wall.
