Edit takeoffs: reshape, add/remove points

Switch to Move (V) first. Everything below happens with the Move tool.

Select

• One shape: click it. You select that one section, and its points show as small squares.
• Add or remove a shape: hold Shift and click.
• Several shapes: drag a box from an empty spot on the plan.
  • Drag left to right to select only the shapes fully inside the box. The box is solid blue.
  • Drag right to left to select every shape the box touches. The box is dashed green.
• A whole object: click it in the Takeoff panel. All of its sections are selected on the plan.

Double-click a selected shape to open its properties. See Edit takeoffs: properties, name and color.

Move a shape

Drag from inside a selected area, or along a selected line. Everything you've selected moves together.

For small moves, use the arrow keys. Hold Shift to move 10 times farther.

Move a point

Drag any point to a new spot. With Snap on, the point snaps to the lines on the plan.

You can also click a point once. It follows your cursor until you click again to place it. Press Escape to put it back.

Add or delete a point

Right-click a point on a selected shape:

• Add point: adds a new point halfway to the next point and attaches it to your cursor. Click to place it.
• Delete point: removes that point. You'll only see it when there are enough points left to keep the shape: more than 3 on an area, more than 2 on a line.
