Find and select objects

  • Search: type in Search objects… to filter the list.
  • Select: click an object. Plankore selects its shapes on the plan, zooms to them and changes page if it needs to.
  • Select more: ⌘-click / Ctrl-click to add objects one at a time, or Shift-click to select a range.
  • See sections: click the arrow next to an object with more than one section. Sections are listed as Garage 1, Garage 2 and so on, each with its own quantity. Click one to jump to it.
  • Hide: hover over an object and click the eye. All of its sections disappear from the plan until you click the eye again.

Rename and more

Right-click an object:

Double-clicking an object opens Properties.

Folders

  1. Click New folder at the top of the panel.
  2. Double-click the folder name to rename it, for example Interiors or Site work.
  3. Drag objects into the folder, or right-click them and choose Move to folder.

Folders can have subfolders, up to three levels deep. Drag folders and objects to reorder them. The eye on a folder hides every shape inside it.
