PRE-PROCESSING

Step 1: Create the sourceYou will get 1 link like this:

http://tour.homevisit.com/view/86615?v=3d

Open the link in GOOGLE CHROME

NOTE: NEED TO USE VIVID IN FIREFOX.

(we have to use MATTERPORT VIEWER LINK and VIVID on different browsers to avoid crashing the unity plugin)

Step 1: Create the source

Click here

This is the original source for drawingfollow this orientation

Then click here

Step 1: Create the source - OBJ FILESBeside the source link, there is also 1 zip file (this is OBJ file, see the image below). MUST use these obj files to draw/scale in vivid.2.3. How to create the source for drawing with OBJ files

Note: follow orientation of original source, not obj files

Step 1: Take SCREENSHOT for original source Step 2: use photoshop/gimp to put combine layer OBJ file and ORIGINAL source.Step 3: use that image and upload in vivid tool to drawStep 4: SCALE RED LINE in the source with 300. (need to scale exactly)

Watch this video: link

Step 1: Create the source- Take screenshot

Crop the picture => We get floorplan for first floor. (see picture)

- Then do the same for other floors. => We get floorplans for second and third source (see picture)

- Change the floor

Step 1: Create the sourceImportant note:

Keep the direction from the source link (Not OBJ file). All the floor have the same direction.

EACH floor is drawn in 1 MODEL (e.g: 3 vivid IDs for 3 floors)

Step 2: scale for the case without obj

UPLOAD AND SCALE

Upload the floorplan to the producer normally

Take scale from toilet seat depth and mark the depth to 76cm

Finish drawing wall/window/door/furniture for 1 floor first, then continue with another floor

Step 2: DRAWINGLET’S TRY WITH FLOOR 2

DRAWING THE WALLWe draw with wall 15cm

- Draw the basic walls first, do not try to be exact at the beginning- Tips: if you see some grey areas, draw the wall around. (e.g: white rectangle)

This could be a small room, or closet or something else. We will check later

Step 2: DRAWINGNow we will use 3D model to check wall, add door and window.

Click here to VIEW 3D MODELS

Make sure we are in the right floor

Left mouse: zoom the model

Right mouse:

move the model

You can use arrow keys to turn model around. Let’s try

Step 2: DRAWING

DRAWING THE WALL/DOOR/WINDOWSGo to every room to check wall/window/door, double click to that room to have a closer view

Use arrow keys (left, right, up, down) to turn around (please try). Add door/opening/windows and fix walls if needed

FurnitureCheck the showcase link for each room

KITCHEN

Note: Before change scale, MUST click here to keep the ratio

Get to know GIMPHow to export file, go to FILE -> Export As.MUST Choose PNG FILE

Dimension and Roomlabelwe use CubiCasa tool to create the layer of

dimension and roomlabel

STEP 1: CONVERT VIVID ID TO OBJ

1. See Vivid ID’s from the order once floorplan is ready2. create SVG (use SVG LINK below): ->SVG link

Copy Vivid ID and place it after the = sign. Press enter. The file will download automatically on your computer (it takes a while, so wait).

This is how it looks on your downloads.

Double click it. It opens a new folder. Double click that.

STEP 2: DRAG SVG FILE to DIMENSION LINK- Open SVG folder

- Open Dimension linkDrag and drop that SVG file into Floorplan tool:

Step 3: calculate the dimensionFIRST, choose INCHES OR METER

Inches is used in USAMeter is used in Europe and Asia.

Read extra information of the order carefully to choose the right option.

click here if you want to change to meter

1. Measure dimensions: Choose MEASURE DIMENSIONS on the let top

Put your mouse on the corner of the room you want to have dimensions, drag the area you want by keeping the right button of your mouse down. You can see the selected area marked with red dotted line. type then choose the right roomlabel.and EnterTo remove dimensions: click the right button of your mouse.

2. Change the dimensions: Go to Scale Dimensions

Click left mouse, then fix the dimension.after finish, click right mouse to remove the red circle, go back to measure dimensions

STEP 3: CALCULATE THE DIMENSIONS

3. How to rotate the dimensions. (for the inclined room). Choose ROTATE DIMENSIONS

RIGHT MOUSE: rotate the dimension CLOCKWISELEFT MOUSE: rotate the dimension COUNTER-CLOCKWISE

must-watch video: http://screencast.com/t/70nrmF3deKu

STEP 3: CALCULATE THE DIMENSIONS

4. Change the size for roomlabels and dimension if needed.The default size is 28.With big model, change it to 30,32, or 35 if labels are too small

with small model, change it to 25,22, or even 20 if labels are too crowded

STEP 3: CALCULATE THE DIMENSIONS

After finish all the roomlabels:Take screenshot, send screenshot to QA for checking first.

STEP 3: CALCULATE THE DIMENSIONS

IF everything is correct, click DOWNLOAD

Then it will go to another link, go to that link, right mouse click, choose save as. Save the svg file to your computer.

EXAMPLE- Need to scale close to the wall (no overlap, no gap)- usually scale until the door of that room -- if there is another room (W.I.C, or bathroom), we don't scale it, but if normal closets inside the room, then we include the closets also.- if sliding door, folding door, door. then don't scale. but if just normal clo in the room. scale it.

STEP 4: ADD THE LAYER TO GIMPNeed to find the right SCALE NUMBER.Insert the model svg file, scale the layer so that it matches with the output pictures. Then check what is scale number. For example: 2650 is the right scale number.

STEP 4: ADD THE LAYER TO GIMPThen insert the dimension file to your work in GIMP. change the WIDTH with 2650(keep ratio)

- see this video: http://screencast.com/t/4mA7zkAb

NOTE:

1. We need the dimensions for the rooms that have room labels (no need for WC, bathroom, small rooms).

2. Always draw from the inner face of the wall.

- If kitchen and living room are connected, end the measuring to something what separates the two spaces. For example: Kitchens fixed furniture, open doorway, end of an wall, corner..

3.

HOW TO MEASUREAlways choose the longest walls of the room to calculate

How to name the room

ROOM LABEL

-Biggest bedroom is always Master Bedroom,

-Don’t name bathrooms

-Room next to kitchen with table = Breakfast

-Room with dining table = Dining (but if next to kitchen check above)

BALCONY - DECK - PORCHREAD: http://www.homedit.com/what-is-the-difference-between-a-porch-balcony-verandapatio-and-deck/

PORCH: like Kuisti in Finnish floorplan, in front of entrance

Balcony: in the second floor

Important note

CHECK FLOOR COLOUR BEFORE CLOSE THE MODEL

Use SQFT tool to check.

Drag file SVG to the tool.

Then click total AREA button

The red area is correct. fix the area without red lineSQFT tool link

Watch this video: http://screencast.com/t/bCGEqojq0Whu

CHECK FLOOR COLOUR BEFORE CLOSE THE MODEL

CORRECT FLOOR COLOR The area with yellow marked is not correct. Need to fix in Vivid. (delete and redraw 1 random wall)

Using "OPEN TO BELOW" label in upper floor to point "open space", do not use dotted line.Note: this is the space from second floor where we can look down to downstair (NO DIMENSION FOR THIS SPACE)

OPEN TO BELOW

FOLDING DOOR (FOLDING DR)If you see two door just has one door handle → folding door

four door with only 2 door handle → double folding door

always leave gap

Check more in video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e8s2rrMWL0k

SLIDING DOOR (SD)/SLIDING DOOR TRANSPARENT (SD.T)

For glass in shower, we use SD.T (sliding door transparent)

❏ If there is sliding door in showcase, we draw SD like this

❏ If there is an door to open to shower → need door icon, no gap between SD

Extra wallSometimes, need to draw some wall for closet space even there is nothing in the source. (check the model carefully). Be careful with door of the closet or ddor to outside

here is door for small room (storage),

draw extra wall here

SLIDING DOOR (SD)/SLIDING DOOR TRANSPARENT (SD.T)

Sliding door for another room is draw with normal SD

No extra wall if you see there is the lock on the door

this is door of closet space

this is door to go outside

outside

How to determine the door direction- see its edgeedge on the right edge on the left no edge, so open

to another sideno edge, so open to another side

Full win and normal win

Use Normal Win

Use Full Win

Use Full Win with Sliding Door Transparent

Outside partDo not need to draw outside part

But, draw if it’s in the source and we know the size of it (see picture)

Outside (balcony)Need to draw the balcony in second floor (can see through the door/window)

No need to draw.

EXAMPLES

HOW TO DO TOTAL sq ft

HOW TO DO TOTAL sq ftStep 1: get SVG file (from vivid ID, same as SVG file for dimension)

Step 2: drag and drop SVG file to sq ft tool link

HOW TO DO TOTAL sq ft Step 3: click button “TOTAL AREA”,

HOW TO DO TOTAL sq ftStep 4: MUST click button “include external wall” button, the red line will change the position (from internal wall to external). Now you will get the info of total sqft for that model. Take the number, e.g: 353.78

HOW TO DO TOTAL sq ftStep 5: Use gimp/photoshop to add info on the right of FLOOR NUMBER (in the middle of FLOOR NUMBER and DISCLAIMER) Font: SEGOE UI, size: same as FLOOR NUMBER. e.g: 1724 sq ft.

IMPORTANT NOTE1. Rounding the result in unit:

e.g: 1234.15 becomes 1234 1234.54 becomes 1235

2. 1253 sq ft, not 1253sq ft, not 1253 sqft, not 1253 SQ FT.3. Do not count “OPEN TO BELOW” in second floor (use remove free area tool), but we still count stair area for each floor.

Watch this video: http://screencast.com/t/Y4CtG8w34. PDF file: no need this info. So only do it for PNG FILES (2D, and 3D)
