Updated over a week ago

Placing Furniture from the project library

  1. Access the furniture library (Shortcut ‘F’) in your project.

  2. Browse through the relevant category or use the search bar to find the desired furniture.

  3. Click on the furniture thumbnail from the list

  4. Once selected, place the furniture in the model.

  5. To quickly rotate the furniture, use the ‘Spacebar’ before or after placing it.

Pro-tip: You can also choose to host the furniture specifically on floors & walls by selecting from the “Snap to” dropdown. Selecting "Snap to Floors" will ensure that the furniture only snaps to the floor and not the slab or any other component on the project. Similarly, you can choose to snap to wall to ensure that the furniture can only placed on a wall. (This can be particularly useful when working with lighting fixtures.)

Note: Every piece of furniture added will be included in the project BOQ, and for those items added to the central library, you can view the overall cost in the costing tab. (The cost tab is available only in team projects).

Editing the Furniture parameters

All furniture components in the Snaptrude library are parametric, meaning you can instantly modify their length, width, and height from the object properties tab.

  1. To change these parameters, click on the furniture element you wish to edit

  2. Open the object properties tab. Make any changes you wish to from there.

  3. You can also change the parameters for multiple elements together.

  4. Furthermore, use the editing tools available in the 'Design' tab such as rotate, copy, flip, etc to make other changes to the furniture.
