Right Click Menu: Design
The Right Click Menu provides you with immediate access to great design tools, making it even more useful!
Align to Grid: Use Align to Grid to automatically snap a selected line or shape to the nearest grid lines. This saves time and improves accuracy, helping you keep elements evenly spaced and perfectly aligned.
Convert Shapes: If you draw a shape on the wrong stage—for example, a planter while you are in the Hardscape Stage—you can quickly correct it. Right‑click the shape and use Convert Shapes to change it to the correct stage type without redrawing.
Go to Stage: Need to adjust a shape using tools from its original stage? Right‑click the object and choose Go to Stage to jump directly to the appropriate stage. For example, right‑click a deck and jump straight to the Hardscape Stage to edit its coping.
Show in Library: To locate the object location in the Library, right‑click it and choose Show in Library. This takes you directly to the item, making it easy to find matching pieces—such as accessories for a furniture set you’ve already placed.
Right Click Menu: Construction
When you are creating detailed, build-ready plans, refining Construction Markup and Page Layout is just as important as selecting the right design elements—so the Right Click Menu includes dedicated options that give you fast access to your most frequently used tools and commands.
Construction Markup
Layer Manipulation: Use right‑click to quickly change the stack order and move layers, making it simple to bring small objects forward or send larger ones behind. For example, send a large tree to the back or bring a small plant to the front with just a few clicks.
Callouts: Speed up your landscape plans by right‑clicking to add Callouts to plants, then use Select Matching to apply fills to multiple plants and trees at once.
O: Click this icon to instantly select every object on that layer.
Lock: This icon shows whether a layer is editable. An open lock means the layer can be edited; a closed lock means the layer is locked and its objects cannot be selected. Locking layers as you finish them is a good way to prevent accidental changes.
Page Layout
Settings: To customize your 2D View, Plant Legend, or Smart Data, use the right‑click menu. Click the Settings button, then adjust the options as needed.
Pan: Click this button to switch your cursor to a hand. Hold the left mouse button and drag with the 2D View Pan Tool to move around within the 2D View.
Fit 2D View to Block: Center and scale the entire project so it fits inside the 2D View block.
Fit 2D View to Page: Center and scale the 2D View so it fills the entire page.
