Use these coordinated grid templates and scale rulers to design to scale in Procreate as accurately as you can in Morpholio Trace. Procreate and Morpholio are both "pixel-based", so neither can export .dxf or .dwg vector files, but the same accuracy one expects from Morpholio can be achieved in Procreate by importing these scale rulers.

The step-by-step process unfolds as follows (time stamps):
0:00 Intro to Procreate as an amazing architectural design and rendering tool
0:18 The Procreate app does not currently support architectural drafting or designing using scale rulers. Either a design sketch must be made from the beginning over an accurate grid template, or a freehand design must be retro-actively scaled over an accurate grid. Furthermore, it can be onerous to calculate the size of prints made in order to preserve the scale used in the document
0:32 A catalog of importable, Procreate-for-Architects 11" x 17" x 300dpi metric and imperial grids for use in accurately scaling Procreate drawings
0:42 A catalog of importable, Procreate-for-Architects architects', engineers' and metric scale rulers for use in accurately scaling Procreate drawings
1:02 The importable scale grid templates are designed to work with either Metric or Imperial systems, and maintain accurate scale when printed out at 11" x 17" or A3 paper dimensions, allowing other design team members to scale the drawings and make progress in design development when the designer is not available in person
2:00 The importable scale rulers come in architects' scales, engineers' scales and metric scale denominations. They are designed to match the grid templates exactly, and maintain accuracy unless accidentally "transformed" during the drawing exercise
2:41 A real-world example of retroactively applying 1/8" = 1' scale to a freehand sketch of a 1200 square foot contemporary affordable house design
3:00 Copying and importing the canvas into a grid template document
4:55 Stretching the imported floor plan to match the 1/8" = 1' scale grid
5:35 Reading dimensions off the grid in preparation of exporting floor plan to Sketchup or Rhino
6:07 Importing an architects' scale to match the grid and aid in design
6:39 Mention of the grid template packs and scale ruler packs available online
6:51 Mention of a Procreate-for-Architects Curated Design and Rendering Brush Set in .brushset file format available online

Thank You so much for this tutorial and Templates!! Purchasing now
Hope you enjoy it! Thanks so much
Thanks a lot for this! I'm new to procreate and first thing I couldn't figure out is how to draw to scale! BTW: love the shape of that house you designed!
Thank you, especially for the appreciation for the house! Its hard to be an architect and not know when you're going to ever get a "break" and be able to make some original architecture. No one told us in school that we would always be working for someone else and possibly get very few opportunities so eventually many of us just start designing for ourselves. Good luck with your learning. Thanks for the comment and please keep them coming.
Hey that’s awesome. Thanks for all the great tutorials. The scale is a nice tool to have!
It solves an interesting problem. Would love to see your work if you get the chance to share!
This is only part I missed in pc. Much appreciated, thank you!
You're welcome!
Many thanks to Akers Architectural Rendering for your valuable work in the architectural field

It is an honor to serve and be part of a community of people such as yourself thank you 🙏🏽
just purchased... how can i make the rulers to scale on my ipad screen?
So long as the dpi of your canvas matches the dpi of the rulers (which is 300 dpi) then however big or small you pinch and zoom the iPad screen, the rulers will be in scale. You can also read the directions that came with the product, although I know that's not as much fun. And btw, thank you for the purchase!
This is exactly the explanation I’m looking for!! Thank youu! :))
Thanks so much, Rokshanchoco. Very glad to have you aboard the channel. How are you using Procreate in your professional or artistic life?
Thank you for these types of videos.
It is I who thank you, @Subham Kumar! It is a wonderful feeling to be thanked by a total stranger , and to know that someone is actually watching these and grateful. Of course you are no longer a stranger as we are one big family of architects and designers trying to do the best work we can on Procreate. If I may, what kind of video are you liking best: the fast one-subject tutorials or the longer real-world project examples?
@@iPadForArchitecture Actually I am new in procreate and I do like short-one subject tutorials. Recently I saw your video I was totally amazed by it, so much to learn and what a potential it have.
Thanks for the video. I want to move from my Mac to the iPad air or Pro. I do a lot of technical drawings that need to be scaled ad this helps.
I th8nk you're going to love it, Tom of NorthCal. Thanks for commenting. How are you using Procreate specifically? Would love to know.
@@iPadForArchitecture It would be for mechanical, civil, and arch drawings
@@tomofnorthcal Check out Morpholio Trace, too, if you haven't already. It may be better suited to your needs than Procreate, try as I may to correct Procreate's scale drawing-related shortcomings on my own lol
Thanks so much for these videos! They are so motivating. I’m not a professional architect but love to draw out things, especially with Procreate.
Any possibility you could just share how you went about making the grids & rulers? Mainly did you create them in Procreate or something else?
Thanks again & please keep those videos coming.
Hi Tony. I made them in photoshop. Took a lot of time but thank goodness I only had to do it once haha. Thanks so much for your question. Be sure to download the free interactive guide linked to in the first comment. Will make the learning go more smoothly
James, thanks for taking the time to respond. Very much appreciated! Got the guide downloaded 👍

Also, can I ask you how you are using Procreate in your life? It really helps me figure out what tutorials to make next, thanks
Could you make a 5mm dot grid matrix
Curious: is that your preferred kind of grid?
@@iPadForArchitecture yes it would be the one I preferred
I’m looking for an App to be able to do site survey floor plans. Could I load the grid at the start and then just draw it to scale from the start? Or is there a better app you’d recommend?
Have you checked out Morpholio Trace? They have an excellent area calculator. Its not as full-featured a painting app as Procreate, but if you tend to do more analytical things and need less rendering flash, might be worth checking out. I know one of the founders Joey Swerdlin and he is just the nicest guy, so I love to promote them.
@@iPadForArchitecture it’s another app on my list. Do you know if either can have pre designed title blocks?
@@grumpygrumpygrump I don't think so. That's why I built them in to my templates. In Morpholio Trace or Procreate you could certainly build your own in a ready-made layer then import it into every new project you start
OMG! This is what I am looking for!!! Thanks for sharing this.
You are very welcome. Hope we solved your template upload problem?

Isn’t it easier to use Morpholio Trace and then import it back into Procreate?
I have to explore this, thanks Tom. Don't forget to let me know how you're using Procreate in your practice. It's really helpful.
Hey I did buy one of the scale but I really didn’t get it how to import and use the scale. So please can you help me i am really getting frustrated now for not knowing how to use it.
I'm sending you an email with some more instructions. Let's try to solve the problem together, shall we?
Yes, thank you so much
I'm a novice artist and your videos and tools fills my knowledge gap. Now I can use procreate for my home floor plans
Great to hear! I hope you have found the other 100+ videos on this channel helpful, too. As I say to all my valued subscribers, please let me know if there is anything in particular you would like to focus on. All my best--J
@@iPadForArchitecture hey there! I’m an interior designer. Does Procreate allow me to quickly do as-builts on measuring day? Rather than paper, is there a way to do it quickly? Thank you
This is super super helpful. Thank you
Glad it was helpful! You're very welcome.

@@iPadForArchitecture Hi James. Sorry for the late reply. I am a landscape architect. I use Procreate to sketch true scale plans, perspective sketches, sections studies.
Why this over Morpholio Trace? Will PC ever add a ruler? Shame you need to hit the transform every time you want to move the ruler
Great tutorials btw
The Morpholio scaling and rulering experience truly is superior. I think the question becomes, can the less than perfect scale ruler solution for procreate combined with procreate’s other virtues make up for the suboptimal scale ruler, and every person has to decide that for themselves. Personally I prefer the cleaner more modern and more intuitive (for me) procreate interface. Would love to hear more about your reasons for preferring MT, though
I’ve tried both just find Morpholio trace scaleable off the bat with the super ruler much faster to get going. I’ve set up 2 sheet of A3 one at 1:50 and another at 1:100 let me get the correct sheet for the drawing. It’s layers set up is great and the accuracy of the design when outline is imported from SketchUp works great. Imported drawings from SketchUp Layoit come in crisp and clear.
Where do you get the grids?
See link in description
This rulers just in inches? Do you have metrical rulers?
Yes
For interior renderings on the iPad, a buddy of mine uses the concepts app. How do you compare it to procreate for those technical drawing projects? Are there reasons to use concepts over procreate?
Whoa great question. I’ve recently been studying up on this because I’ll be teaching iPad for interior designers for UCLA masters interior design this winter. Big difference is that Concepts app (and Shapr-3D) are vector-based programs, meaning the drawings you make with them can be infinitely scaled and also (I believe) can be exported to auto cad or otherwise reflect actual dimensions, so they have that value but they also require you to draw more methodically and slowly, so one could argue they are not really about sketching but more about designing and making things. Procreate and Morpholio on the other hand are really best for early stage concept design, when you are trying to access your deepest intuitions in a fluid stream of conscious way of drawing and designing. The downside is that you have to manually dimension your drawings in these two apps, as they cannot be exported to autocad or 3D programs, nor can they be infinity scaled up as you will see pixelation. So I prefer procreate as I prefer to design freehand and intuitively, then hand dimension my designs before separately modeling in 3D
Nice tools Akers
Thank you my friend!
I just watched your video and I bought the architecture scale and engineers scale and I am having trouble creating their own file so I can import them into my isometric drawings. Any help be nice.
Hi Blake. Apologies but I will get to first thing in the AM! Will make sure we get it to work.
Got your email Blake and you are very welcome

I am having the same trouble after purchasing. Please help….
Where's my @Tony Gilmour love? I depend on your positive reaction, good sir! (jk but you know what I mean) And to those of you who haven't watched Tony's vids, be sure to check him out. Please tell him I sent you.
Why not just use the built in drawing guide with 2D grid and define your own scale?
That definitely works for some. Great suggestion
👍👍👍
You honor me, sir
morpholio trace already have a scalable ruler... better choice...
I agree but I started using procreate before Morpholio trace came out (!) so it was not an option...and in my opinion the digital sketching and painting tools in Morpholio are not as intuitive as in Procreate. But I have been meaning to make videos of Morpholio as well. Can you suggest which channel I should watch?
@@iPadForArchitecture you will find everything on morpholio’s trace channel... i start with procreate and after change to trace... no regrets
@@JeancarloRibas Good to know, thanks, man!
Is the ability to draw in scale with Morpholio Trace the only reason it might be preferred for users who are actually printing and submitting plans? As in, does Morpholio get us from "Concept" to "Plans" in a single application? Or would both applications require switching over to an actual drafting program once the concepts are complete?
@@ph3590 Both applications are usually used to create the concept and present illustrated manual drawings. For precise drawings the only application for Ipad that I know is called Arcsite.
Psycho price.
I love that band! Oh wait, you mean something else? Do tell, Double click on that please. I really appreciate your comments and want to be sure I understand. And...If you haven't answered elsewhere already, can I ask how you're using iPad drawing in your personal or professional life?
hi, these are amazing, this really solved a problem i was having with procreate as a tool for plans
i just bought the rules, but i cant seem to import them, i just sent you an email
Hey thanks for reaching out and glad we could solve the problem
