Floorplanner Tutorial

Floorplanner.com Basics Tutorial Video

[@modeverything9949]

I freaking love RUclips. You can always find a video on how to do something. Thanks for taking the time to do this video sir.

[@katrojo]

Thank you! This tutorial helped me very much understanding the mistakes I had often made - and get rid of them. Very good explenation. I would be happy to see more floorplanner tutorials.

[@gordo3582]

Thanks for making this! I used the site to do a floorplan and was really happy with how easy it was to use and how good it looked with the 3D renderings and walkthrough. Gladly paid the $6 to export high resolution images when I was done. A bargain.

Easier than adjusting after drawing the room, try keeping the mouse button pressed while drawing (just wait for the little blue line to show) and writing the feet/inches with the other hand on your keyboard (I do it with the left on the numpad) and hit [enter]. This dimension will be added to the walls where the blue line showed.

[@TheSateef]

this is great software, i've designed about 15 houses with it already. I can do in 15 minute in this what takes all day in 3DSmax and more importantly I can change walls, doors, windows, furniture etc in seconds vs hours in 3dsmax.
the only negatives I would say is it crashes all the time when editing surfaces, and the furniture library needs to have furniture sets. for example impossible to find a sofa and a chair the same color. or 2 kitchen units of the same style. Also trying to get exact dimensions is a little frustrating and needs a way to turn off snapping sometimes.

[@GD-vs7xp]

I don't work for Floorplanner or Josh but the crashes are most likely your computer not having good enough graphics/processor combo. There are some sets on Floorplanner: click the product and look at the name, then write it in the search bar. Try, for example "Concord" and you'll see various options for tables/chair sets, write "Thorne" and you'll see different beds. Some sets are more extense than others and include more than different versions of one item ("Revolve" for example, includes beds, chairs, tables). As long as the object has variations or is part of a set, it will find more of them. Another option is clicking the object and clicking "similar items" at the bottom.

[@dariaulesan4773]

Is this free?

[@1958cerb]

thank you!! could you do another video taking it to a more sophisticated level with little tricks you have learned. You are very good at presenting.

[@juliegordon3608]

Used your tutorial to lay out my RV remodel. Thank you!

[@chitpaul]

Can you adjust the wall / structure thicknesses.

[@robsen2543]

Hey, I wanted to ask if it's possible to create standalone walls let's say of 120cm to mount a toilet on it and the other walls are of a standard height of 260cm. Is there a possibility that the smaller wall doesn't connect with one of the other walls, so that it doesn't create a slope? Thank you in advance for the answer.

[@malizee2264]

Wanted to find out how to paint the outside walls! Thank you!!!

[@lexrm4]

hi josh , we appreciate the tutorial . uploaded floor planner however I'm struggling to find the magic layout option

[@shaun159]

Do you need to pay to upgrade in order to be able to view the outside of the house I designed the house but when I walk out side it does not show the external walls?

[@architectworld8404]

[@josearodas3124]

Thanks for the video! A very clear explanation.

[@gustavonook]

great video Joshua Fries it really helps me out

[@davidnettleton3375]

Thanks for the tutorial Joshua! I'm brand new with this program, and learned a lot watching your video. But I'm struggling with something very basic. As I'm drawing all the individual rooms inside my building, rooms that were there keep disappearing and reverting back to having a grid surface instead of the colored floor surface. What am I doing wrong? I worked on my design for a couple of hours last night, and now a lot of my work is just gone. I can't seem to restore it and I'm having to start all over.

[@joycesoh5876]

Is it possible to draw cubicle partitions, like commercial toilets?

[@beverlybroyles8183]

I am having my students create a "Dream Room" using Floorplanner. How do you recommend that they turn in their assignment to me? I'm currently having them export the plan to themselves using their school email address and then forwarding the 2D and 3D to me. It's cumbersome and I can't see the 3D version. Any suggestions will be helpful.

[@joshuafries2394]

I have my students do calculations in a packet I created for the project; then I have them do screenshots to create a google slide presentation that they share with me ,as well as, present to the class.

[@biblestoryadventureswithem4512]

Nice job, but could you do another video for more advanced people, not just basics. I have used 'Floor Planner 3D' for 3+ years and would like to know some more tricks.

This is not how you design a house. You do it room by room, you rarely have the dimensions of the whole house.

[@antoniodominion987]

Thank you very much for a helpful video that was very well produced with your picture in picture narration in the zoomed out overview. The only critique I have - and this is for your own education for sometime if you’re in a job interview or something - there is no “L“ at the end of the word draw. The word is pronounced draw with no “L” at the end so it’s, “draw” NOT “drawl.” For example, a drawl is the pronunciation of words by southerners where the last syllable of a word is spoken long. I hope that this is helpful. Best regards, ~Antonio

[@davidnettleton3375]

Seriously dude? There are different accents in different parts of the country, and the world. Get over yourself. You knew what he meant. We knew what he meant. He probably knows that he does it. RUclips is not the place to be a grammar or pronunciation nazi. Just enjoy the content, or move on.

[@antoniodominion987]

@@davidnettleton3375 YOU are RIGHT and I am so sorry that I did that. I am a proofreader professionally, so sometimes I forget to trun it off when I am online in public forums. Please accept my sincerest apologies for this lapse in judgment. Best wishes, ~Antonio
