In the Floors module, selecting the floorplan option will grant you access to the corresponding floor plate for each floor:
You can also update the floor plan here:
Selecting draw floorplan option will enable you to draw the polygon for the corresponding unit in the floor plan:
Utilize + and - buttons to zoom in and out, and always remember to save your path after drawing.

Step 1
After drawing the polygons for a floor, and if other floors share the same floor plate, you can clone the drawings. This will help speed up the process by duplicating the drawn polygons.

Step 2
After choosing the floor you wish to copy from, it will serve as the reference floor, and its drawings will be cloned. You may choose as many floors as needed. Enabling the Clone Floorplan option will copy both the drawings and the floor plans from the selected floor.
Clicking on the delete button will remove the entire floor along with its units.
AI Unit Detection reads a floorplan image, traces the visible unit boundaries and helps match those outlines to the units already in your project. Nothing is saved until you review and apply the results.
Marios: add the existing two-minute overview video here. /images/ai-unit-detection-overview.m4v
Unit boundaries and numbers are readable at the uploaded resolution.
The units have already been imported or added when you want Planpoint to match outlines to existing records.
Your account has at least one AI credit. Each floorplan detection costs one credit.
AI Unit Detection works best on high-contrast architectural plans. Faint scans, overlapping annotations and low-resolution images may need more manual adjustment.
Go to Content → Floors. Find the floorplan you want to process and click Detect units.

Choose a detection mode
Select Best quality for complex or crowded floorplans. Select Faster for a quicker, value-optimized pass on clear and simple plans.Turn Include balconies, terraces and gardens off when you only want the enclosed interior boundary of each unit.

Start detection
Confirm the credit balance and click Start detection. Planpoint uploads the floorplan for analysis, finds the units, cleans up the outlines and prepares matches against your project data.You can follow each stage in the progress window. Processing a complex floorplan can take several minutes.

Review every result
Planpoint opens a full-screen review after detection. Check each outline and choose whether it should:
Update an existing unit.
Create a new unit.
Be skipped.
Printed unit numbers are used to suggest matches where possible. Resolve any duplicate assignments before applying the results.
Marios: add the review screen with polygons and assignment controls visible. /images/ai-unit-detection-review.png

Apply and fine-tune
Apply the reviewed results to save them. You can then use Redraw on individual units to adjust any outline that needs a manual correction.
A detection costs one AI credit per floorplan. The setup screen shows the current balance and includes a Top up link. Failed detections and results with no usable regions are refunded automatically.
Confirm that the floor has a floorplan image and that AI detection is enabled for your account. Contact Planpoint support if the action is still unavailable.
Some units were missed or merged
Try Best quality with the clearest available source image. After applying the useful results, redraw any missing or inaccurate outline manually.
The wrong unit was selected during review
Use the assignment control for that region to select the correct existing unit, create a new one or skip it. Nothing changes in the project until you apply the review.
Outdoor areas changed the unit boundary
Run detection with Include balconies, terraces and gardens turned off when you only need enclosed interior outlines.
