    That is so interesting, I have been wondering how to do that. If I wanted to do a drawing with. scale of 1:76, how would I set up the grid ?
    I have a physical scale ruler at 4mm to 1’-0, would I make the grid 4mm or would I scan in the ruler?
    Thanks so much

    • @TheDesignJournal
      @TheDesignJournal  Před 3 měsíci +1

      Hii!!
      Wow , 1:76 is such an interesting scale.
      But yes!! , it's better you scan it on an a3 sheet, import image, reduce opacity and then adjust the grid size according to it.
      Let me know how it goes 😊♥️

    How do I get p & g ruler in metric? Appreciate your guidance

    • @TheDesignJournal
      @TheDesignJournal  Před 4 měsíci

      Hi, thanks for watching. ♥️
      You just have to download a png scale image from pinterest.
      Since our grids are already set to scale, you just have to expand the scale measurement to that of the grids (I.e, : one grid = 1m = 1cm on the the png scale )
      It can be a lil confusing , but the more you work on it, it becomes east in time.
      Hope this helps!!😊

    How can you draw a composite floor plans for a multi- storey building when locations of lift shaft, water pipes, sewage down pipes and balconies are aligned ? Thank you.

    • @TheDesignJournal
      @TheDesignJournal  Před 6 měsíci

      You can make the sheet dimensions bigger( maybe A2 /A1)and try accommodating basement, typical floor , and the terrace floor plan in the same, one above the other.
      If you want to show beams and columns , you can show in the same file, making the beams as one object in a single layer and duplicating and placing it all over and grouping all the detail layers into one. You can do the same for plumbing , electrical etc
      Or,
      You can save the plans as a jpeg from the previous canvas, import it in a new canvas, reduce the opacity, and then show all your other details.
      Note : do not make the mistake of merging all layers in the main canvas (floor, wall, furnitures, doors, windows)
      Because you wouldn't be able to modifying the plan in the future if you do so
      Hence it is always better to export it as Jpeg, import in a new canvas of same scale and sheet dimensions and continue your other details over it.
      Hope this helps .
      Thanks for supporting ♥️😊

    Hi when I turn the Grid on I can no longer free draw. Everything I draw has to be straight lines.

    • @TheDesignJournal
      @TheDesignJournal  Před 7 dny

      Hello!!
      Have you tried switching off the drawing assist option in the layer ? Either you can draw straight lines only , by switching on drawing assist, or you can draw free hand by switching it off. Go to layer (top right corner tab) >press on the layer you want to draw>click the drawing assist option. Hope this helps? Do let me know how it goes ❤

      Unfortunately no. :(
      Procreate app works only on ipad . And you need to have apple pen to use it comfortably.
