Last updated 1 month ago

1. Build your Adaptive Plan Library

  • Draw a unit plan in your project.

  • The plan can be saved as a new plan to your Adaptive Plan Library by selecting Save to Library at the bottom of the right panel.

2. Adhere to regulations with constraints

  • Navigate to your plan library by clicking on Plans in the upper menu.

  • Select the desired plan in your library and edit it.

  • Select stretch preview (shift + s) and drag the bounds of the plan to see how it will be stretched or shrunken.

  • Select the constraints (shift + c) button and click on walls that you want to lock, turning them red.

    • Click on walls twice to add an extendable constraint, where the wall can stretch but not shrink. This can be ideal for doorways, or rooms with a minimum width.

  • Select the stretch preview again to see how the locked walls no longer stretch with the rest of the plan.

Enterprise Users: This plan is included in your organization's dataset, and will be included in future Generate Plan result batches.

Basic & Enterprise Users: This plan will now appear as a result when you Generate - Scan my library

Finch can take a single plan from your library and use it in 1000 new shapes, all while maintaining your regulations.
