How to Add Multiple Floors in 3D Floor Planner
If you are working on a project that spans multiple floors, you can now use the 3D floor planner to showcase all those floors together in the same plan.
With this feature, you design the ground floor, then duplicate that floor to another level to save time. You can select what you want to copy over — walls, doors, windows, staircases and more — and continue to customise the design as needed.
If you want, you can even create multiple floors to display different versions of your floor plan so clients can select what they prefer.
To Get Started:
Open up your relevant floor plan, or you can create a new one. Build out the ground floor the way you want it — read How to Create a 3D Floor Plan to learn more about creating your 3D design.
Once you are ready to use your ground story to create another level, select the New Floor dropdown at the top left of your floor plan. Click the Add Floor button.
Another screen will appear where you can input floor details. Add in a floor name, and specify what you would like to copy over from the ground floor — walls, ceilings, doors, windows, stairways, furniture or outdoor surfaces. When you check the box next to an item, it will copy over to the new story to save you time. When you've made your selections, click Add.
Your new storey will now appear in the 3D floor planner, where you can make structural adjustments and add new features, furniture and more.
The floors dropdown menu will now show multiple levels. From this menu, you can:
- Click the three dots icon to the right of an existing floor to rename it or delete it (you can only delete if there are multiple floors).
- Click and drag the six dots icon on the left to reorder the floors.
- Click Add Floor if you would like to add a new level — you can add up to six floors in the same 3D floor plan.
