Systems assistant: a proposal per room

· 1 min read

Let the editor propose sockets, switches, lights, taps, radiators and vents for every room of a level, from the room type. You see the proposal first, and accept or discard it.

A proposal per room, shown faintly on the plan, with the list of rooms and the Accept and Discard buttons.
  1. 1. Room types first

    Give each room its type: click the room and open Type in the room panel on the left (Living, Bedroom, Kitchen, Bathroom, Hall...). The proposal follows the type and the size of the room.

  2. 2. Choose what to propose

    In Systems, open a trade, then Propose. Tick the trades you want: Electrical, Water and drains, Heating, or Ventilation and air conditioning.

  3. 3. Propose

    Click Propose for this level. The proposal shows faintly on the plan, and per room in the list: lights in the middle, a switch at each door (two doors: two-way switches on the same lights), sockets along the walls, taps, a floor drain in wet rooms, a radiator under each window and an extract vent in wet rooms.

  4. 4. Keep or leave rooms

    Untick a room to leave it out. If you change the plan, the proposal is out of date: propose again.

  5. 5. Accept or discard

    Accept puts everything in the plan in one step; ⌘Z takes it all away again. Discard leaves the plan as it was. After accepting, move or change each symbol like any other.
