Use Architecture objects

Enabled: Architectural objects are used in the drawing. Only when the Use Architecture objects option is enabled, the remaining checkboxes for wall styles, door styles and the 2-point method become accessible.

Use wall styles

Enabled: Wall styles are used in the drawing. The selection in the drop-down list is accessible only if this option is enabled.

Use door styles

Enabled: Door styles are used in the drawing. The selection in the drop-down list is accessible only if this option is enabled.

2-points method for windows and doors

Enabled: You can determine the respective width when drawing windows, doors and openings by clicking two points in the drawing. This is useful if you are using a 2D floor plan as a template, for example as an external reference. Then you do not have to adjust the width of windows and doors every time.

Note:

The possibility to select 3D options for certain commands is only available for 3D planning types. These are not available with all program versions and depend on the existing program licenses
