2.2.4.2

Analyze house plans built in Home Plan Pro with options to configure measurement units, and even export to different picture files

Designing and planning projects on a computer is a common thing nowadays, not only because of the variety of specialized design applications, but also because of the great deal of accuracy. For instance, house plans can be built and analyzed, while applications like Home Plan Viewer come with a powerful environment to study and print designs.

Lightweight and easy to use


It doesn’t take a lot of time before you can check out the application’s set of features. The visual design is intuitive, with most of the space representing the preview area, which is also fitted with rulers to make it easy to measure elements. Moreover, you can pay a visit to the preferences menu in order to specify the dimensions you want to use.
There are different sample files you can load to get an idea what can be accomplished. On its own the application provides little practicality, unless you have a bunch of PLN files lying around. This is because the core function is to be a simple viewer for designs created with Home Plan Pro. Since it’s a mere viewer, you don’t have to worry about messing up any values or the plan itself.

View and export options


However, the application does come with an impressive variety of view options. Apart from different measurement units you can configure, view options are used to show rulers, zoom bar buttons, crosshair, pan options, text, dimensions, and pictures.
There are more view options can be configured as default from the preference panel. This can mean how walls and doors, windows and drawings, images and figures. Apart from viewing, the application makes it possible to export the entire plan to different picture files like JPG, BMP, and GIF, as well as EMF, and DXF.

In conclusion


Taking everything into consideration, we can say that Home Plan Viewer is sure to come in handy for analyzing house plans, exporting to different file formats, or directly printing on a sheet of paper. Measurement units can be configured to suit your region and demands, while the display area benefits from a variety of view options.
