How Can I Add and Move Room Names?

Room names make your floor plan easy to understand at a glance. In the RoomSketcher App, you can quickly add, edit, and move room names to keep everything organized.

How Do I Add a Room Name to My Floor Plan?

The steps below describe how to place one room name in each room. If you want to place multiple room names in one room, see Display Two or More Room Names in One Room.

1. Open your project in the RoomSketcher App.
2. Click the red Mode button and open Walls mode.
3. Click a room to select it so that its Properties appear on the right. 
4. Click Select Zone Name. Or use hotkey R.
   
   
    
   
5. Choose your preferred name from the list.
   
   
   
   - The name gets added to the selected room. 
   - The name gets also added to the Zone Name field. You can still make changes in this field; for example change the name from Bathroom to Bath.  
   - A Room Type gets selected (if any). You can still assign a different room type by clicking on Room Type. 
   
   
   
   
6. Click another room, and repeat from step 4.

Tips

• If your preferred room name is not in the list, simply type the name into Zone Name. 
• If you want to also show the size of the room, in Properties on the right, check Show Zone Size.
• Room Types are used to define colors or materials in your 2D Floor Plans. Read more here: 2D Floor Plans - Customize Your Floor Plans
