Space's View Only Mode and Edit Mode
The Spaces module contains a View Only mode which can be used to investigate the floor plan and if you have the secured action then you use the Edit Floor plan mode.
View Only Mode
The View Only displays by default and lets you safely investigate the floor plan without accidentally making changes.
When in this mode, you can complete the following:
- Search for a Person
- View the Space Form - double click a space to view the Space form. For more details about the Space form, refer to Update Space Details via the Spaces Module.
- View Equipment in the Custom Layers
- Search for a Space
- Space View Selector
- Using the Measuring Tool
Edit Floor Mode
If you have the secured action to edit, then click the Edit Floor to enable the toolbars and editing. As you make changes the Spaces module will prompt you to publish your changes and if you make an invalid change a warning message will display.
If you are using Serraview’s Floor plan Importer, new spaces must be created in your CAD file and then uploaded. Do not use the Spaces module to create them. Also, do not edit shapes as this will interfere with the floor's ability to be exported and imported from AutoCAD in the future.
If you are unsure if you are using Floor plan Importer, then check with your System Administrator.
