Transform Paper Blueprints into Digital Designs

One of the most powerful features of RoomyLab is the ability to Trace Plan. Instead of manually measuring every wall with a tape measure, you can simply take a photo of an existing floor plan and draw over it.

Step 1: Upload Your Image

Click the Trace Plan icon (the image plus symbol) in the sidebar. Select a clear photo or scan of your floor plan (JPG or PNG).

Step 2: Calibrate the Scale

An image doesn't naturally know how "big" it is. You need to tell the engine the scale:

1. Click Point A and Point B on a line of a known distance (like a 3-foot door or a 10-foot wall).
2. Enter the real-world distance in the popup.
3. The system will now automatically scale the entire image so that every wall you draw is perfectly accurate.

Step 3: Trace Your Walls

Select the Wall Tool and draw directly over the lines of your uploaded image. The walls will snap into place, creating a 1:1 digital replica of your physical blueprint.

Step 4: Add Furniture and Doors

Once your walls are traced, toggle the Layer Panel to hide the background image. You can now place furniture, windows, and doors to see how a new renovation would look in your actual space.

Pro Tip: If you don't have a blueprint, take a birds-eye photo of a hand-drawn sketch and trace that!
