Frequently asked questions
Is the diagram to scale?
It is a clear top-down schematic rather than a survey. It communicates positions and relationships, which is what a lighting plan needs to do.
How do I remove an item?
Double-click it. You can also clear the whole diagram and start again from the toolbar.
Is anything uploaded?
No. The diagram is built and exported entirely in your browser.
