Quick3DPlan – Views and Perspectives

🎯 Overview

In this video, we will learn how to create, save, and manage views and perspectives, show or hide elements, and save photos and plans of our designs.

1. Switch Between 2D and 3D Views

  • Use the View tools or the tabs in the lower-left corner
  • View 3D button → opens the last used 3D view
  • If there is no previous view, the top-down view will be displayed

2. Create a Perspective View

  • Change 3D View tool
  • Click to place the camera → drag to indicate the viewing direction
  • Release the mouse → the perspective view is generated

Available adjustments:

  • Mouse wheel or Zoom buttons to zoom in/out
  • Pan the view by dragging or using the bottom-right controls
  • Modify perspective: hold the right mouse button and drag, or use the Float Up, Rotate Down, Left, or Right tools
  • Adjust control sensitivity and speed using the sensitivity bar

3. Save and Retrieve Views

  • Save Current View tool → assign a name and confirm
  • Retrieve saved views with Open Saved View
  • By default: four lateral views of the room
  • To delete views: select and use Delete
  • Home View button → returns to bird’s-eye view
  • Quick access buttons for Front, Back, Right, and Left views

4. Elevation Views

  • Elevation View tool → select a wall

Adjustments:

  • Dimensions are generated automatically (can move or delete)
  • Move a dimension: select, adjust the distance, and confirm
  • Delete a dimension: select and confirm

5. Floor Plan and Multiple Views

  • 2D Plan tool → line view
  • Multiple Views tool → configure number of views (2 vertical, 2 horizontal, 3 or 4)
  • Assign names to the views in the right column (e.g., Top, Right, Perspective)
  • Result: visualize several perspectives simultaneously

6. Camera Adjustment and Locked Objects

  • If a black square appears → camera is behind furniture or a wall
  • Solution: hover over the object and move closer using the mouse wheel or zoom buttons
  • Perspective can be modified from any view

7. Show or Hide Objects

  • Show/Hide Objects tool → activate or deactivate the bulb for each element type
  • Example: hide countertops or cabinet doors to see the interior

8. Save Images and Plans

  • Projects tab → Save Image tool
  • Configure:
    • File name and location
    • Format: default .bmp, options for .png or .jpg
  • Saved image → accessible from your computer

Note:
These tools provide full control over design visualization, making it easier to take screenshots, adjust framing, and customize perspectives before presentation or export.
