Create Floor Plan Layer

A Layer can be of two types:

  • Assets: these are layers that can be stylized, can display information in labels or pop-ups.
  • Aesthetic: these indicates background details, used for contextual details like Architecture and Furniture.

Give the Layer a descriptive Label. Select the Layer and the Layer Type Furniture and Wall layers should have Assets as its Layer Type. The Show in Legend option indicates whether or not this Layer will appear in the Floor Plan legend. Set a Default Layer Label that will always appear whenever the layer is displayed, or leave blank if you’d prefer the layer to appear without any labels. Fill in other fields with preferred values.

Create Floor Plan Layer form

In the Styles Tab, add an Icon to the Layer if necessary. Set the opacity of the items. Opacity describes the transparency of an item, and ranges from 0 to 1; where 0 is completely transparent, and 1 is not transparent at all.

Layer Filters

Adding filter(s) helps clean up the layer renderings, by only bringing in the necessary items that will be styled on the layer. Multiple filters can be applied to a layer.
Items filtered into the layer will be styled based on the setting in the ‘Styles’ tab.

Please make sure the filter values are the same as the themes if applying a theme.
