Three Ways to Engage

DigiDigz is a feature-rich platform with new abilities to interact with digital property replicas for many good reasons. However, most real estate buyers simply want a quick look at a 3D floor plan. DigiDigz plans open by default in View Only mode, providing dollhouse and multiple floor views and basic information such as room types and dimensions. Edit Mode gives users added abilities to decorate the virtual space and arrange 3D models of furnishing products, and Renovation Mode enables minor renovations.

DigiDigz opens in View Only Mode by default.

 

This is a basic view intended as a quick look at a digital floor plan replica with the ability to zoom in and view the floor layout from any angle.  It helps real estate clients get a spacial sense of properties listed for sale, and provide basic floor plan information such as room layout and dimensions.

 

If a plan has more than one level, buyers can view an individual floor by making a selection in the control panel at the top of the page. Clicking a floor area will display that room name and its dimensions at the top of the page. 

 

You can return to the dollhouse view of the complete property by clicking the plan name at the top of the page. 

ViewOnlyTut

Click “Edit Plan” at the top right of the View Only screen to add abilities to change wall and floor coverings, and place, arrange and configure furnishings inside your digital property.

Please note, the feature that allows you to move and resize structural objects, such as walls, windows and doors, is locked by default. You can enable this new ability by selecting a wall and then clicking the “Lock” icon that appears at the bottom left of the screen. We will explain it all a bit later under the heading “Renovation Mode”.

Walls, windows, doors and structural openings are locked in position by default. You can explore upgrade options by replacing a window or door, but you cannot change its size or location. If you are planning a minor renovation, select a window, for example, and a Lock icon will appear at the bottom left of the screen. Click this icon once to unlock all structural elements in the plan. You can then move and resize windows and doors, and change the thickness, height and position of walls.

 

This feature is intended to help plan minor renovations. Users must access structural plans available through their floor plan contractor or upgraded DigiDigz subscription to plan major renovations such as adding rooms.

Decorate & Visualize

It is recommended that you decorate and renovate the plan in either Dollhouse or Floor Plan View, then ‘Walk Inside’ to visualize the space. Zoom and Pan features have been disabled in Walk Inside mode to better simulate an actual walkthrough.

Selecting objects is a simple tool for targeting items that users wish to manipulate. To select any wall, floor or product simply left click the object. A blue outline indicates the object has in fact been selected. 


Double click any object to zoom in and place it at the centre of your screen. This will keep the object at the centre of the screen as you make changes, and is useful for viewing fabric and texture options.


Click outside the plan or hit escape to deselect the object. 

To move a product within the floor layout, simply left-click-HOLD (2 SECONDS) and drag the the product to its desired location.

To rotate product, left-click-hold and use the scroll wheel. Scroll upwards to rotate the object clockwise, and downwards for counter-clockwise rotation.

Users can quickly delete any unwanted object in their design by selecting the item and clicking the delete button at the left of the screen.

Users can quickly duplicate objects in their floorplan by selecting the item and then clicking the duplicate button to the left of the screen. The item will replicate itself at a position slightly offset from the original object.

When you select an object and the animate button appears at the top of the screen, it means the object has added functionality. For example, it might show the lighting effect of turning a light fixture on or off, or how a chair might recline, or open/close a door. In most cases the same effect can be achieved by double clicking the object.

Product Information

Clicking a product model, then the  information icon at the top of the screen will generate a pop up that shows detailed product information, including videos introducing product vendors, links to their websites and directions to any local brick and mortar stores.l

Share

Share your designs with clients, friends and family by clicking the Share button at the top of the screen. They can weigh in on design choices by modifying and sharing a duplicate plan.

Measurement Tools

Measure

Two measurement tools are available in the Digidigz app. The first appears automatically at the bottom centre of the screen when you select any object. Shown is the actual measurement of objects and the numbers change dynamically as you change the size or configuration of the object.

The second measurement tool appears when you move an object within the plan. Arrow indicate the distance to the two closest walls and assist in furniture placement.
