Object Management

Select, move, align, copy, and delete objects on your floor plan.

Selection

  • Single Select - Click on an object (clears previous selection)
  • Multi-Select - Hold Shift and click additional objects (first clicked is the alignment reference)
  • Marquee Select - Use the Select tool button, then click and drag on empty space to draw a selection box
  • Deselect - Press Escape or click empty area
  • Reference Indicator - When 2+ objects are selected, a cyan diamond with "REF" marks the alignment reference object

Moving Objects

  • Drag - Click and drag a selected object to move all selected objects together
  • Group Drag - Click on any already-selected object to drag the entire selection group
  • Move Mode - Right-click → Move to enter mode where object follows cursor
  • Shift Snap - Hold Shift while dragging to snap to nearest inch
  • Cancel Move - Press Escape to cancel move mode

Alignment Tools

When 2+ objects are selected, the alignment buttons in the ribbon's MODIFY group become available:

  • Align Horizontal - Aligns all selected objects to the Y position of the reference object
  • Align Vertical - Aligns all selected objects to the X position of the reference object
  • Center Z-height - Aligns the vertical center (Z) of selected objects to the first selected object in the elevation view

Cross-View Z Alignment

Center Z-height works across view switches so you can align objects that aren't visible at the same time:

  1. Select a reference object (e.g., a display on the floorplan) and one or more targets
  2. Click Center Z — the first selected becomes the locked reference and a badge appears showing its label and Z value
  3. Switch to another view (e.g., electrical)
  4. Select additional objects and click Center Z again — they align to the locked reference
  5. Click × on the reference badge to clear it when done
