  2. Compare room kinds

Give a room any name you want. Choosing a kind changes its color in the drawing and the furniture in the actual-size room.

Change the name and kind

  1. Tap the room you want to change in the Floor Plan window.
  2. Enter a new Name in the inspector. It appears in the drawing, model, and actual-size room labels.
  3. Choose Living room, Bedroom, Dining room, or Other from the Kind menu. The tile color and the furniture in the model and actual-size room change to match the kind.

You can also change the kind from the menu that appears when you pinch and hold a room tile. Names appear inside tiles when they are large enough. If a name isn’t visible, the tile may be too small. Resize a room or adjust the drawing to a readable size.
