Wall elevations of a room: step by step
1. Open the room walls
Choose a room, open Size in its card, and click Wall elevations. Or choose Elevations under ⋯ next to the views in the top bar (in Sheets Elevations stands on its own) and choose Room walls.
2. Pick the room and wall
Pick the Room from the list. All walls shows every wall with its letter (A, B, C ...) and the Key plan; click a letter to see one wall large. Wall A is the top wall of the room, then clockwise.
3. What is drawn
Cabinets and furniture within 30 cm of the wall at their real height (a wall cabinet hangs at its height). Every symbol from Systems that sits on a wall at its mounting height, with the height next to it: sockets, switches, taps, radiators (by their bottom), the boiler, the water meter, the manifold and the indoor air conditioner. A soil stack runs from the floor to the ceiling. A ceiling light, spot, vent or other symbol without a usual height shows once you give it a height in Systems. The height is the same as in Systems and 3D. Under the wall a chain of sizes and the length, on the sides the heights.
4. Tiles and heights
Tile a wall side in its card (Walls, the side, Tiles) with bands: tiles up to a height for a splashback, paint above, each with its tile size. Set the height of a socket or switch in its card under Mounting height.
5. Save or export
With an unlocked home, Pro or Team, Download SVG saves what you see; without, the button says why. In Export, with an unlocked home, Pro or Team, tick Room walls: one page per room in the PDF, or one file per room. The DXF has its own layers for the wall, tiles, openings, furniture and symbols.
