Drawing mode
After successful calibration, you can draw areas, lines, dimension lines and texts onto the image. As soon as you have activated the drawing mode, you can select which type of element you want to draw.
Areas & cutouts
Areas are subdivided into wall and roof areas, and cutout areas are subdivided into windows or doors. Cutout areas can only be drawn within areas and may not protrude beyond the surface edge of the surrounding area.
The area of the cutouts is deducted when calculating the net area of the surrounding area.
A distinction is made between rectangular and free forms for both areas and cutouts.
Rectangular
Rectangular areas can either be chosen in the drawing mode with one click or by drawing up in the image. The perpendicular angles always refer to the direction of the calibration.
Once a corner point is edited, the neighboring corner points direct according to the perpendicular angles. Furthermore, orientation lines that are the original connecting lines will be shown while editing a corner point.
Free form
Within this mode, you can draw free forms onto the image. Just click on a free spot and a point will be added to the form. One click on an existing point deletes it. If only 3 points should exist in the area, you wouldn't be able to delete points anymore. If a point is moved, orthogonally orientation lines will show up that cross-neighboring points. The last moved point can be placed more accurately with the zoom function again.

Line
In addition to texts, lines are one of the two drawings that do not require calibration. You can draw the line with a pull-up movement. If you edit the name of the line, it will also be shown in the picture next to the line.

Measurement line
The function of the reference line is to measure distances. After successful calibration, you can draw it onto the image like a regular line. However, it does not show the name next to the line, but its calculated length.
When editing the picture, once again orientation lines that cross the selected finishing point in either 90° or 45 ° angles to the layer will show up.
Text
Text can be placed onto the image with one click. Next, a dialog window will pop where you can enter and edit the text. Another option is to edit the text in the table section “name”.
In the editing mode, you can edit the position of the note such as the position of the arrow.
