1238888

Aligning sheets means, for example, that you align an uploaded floor plan to an existing sheet or to an overview map that was created while uploading a SCENE or Stream project. You can also align a sheet to control points, see Align an Area or a Sheet to Control Points for more information.

You need at least the Project Editor role to align sheets.

Start the Alignment Process

You have added the sheet yourself: 

After adding the sheet, the Alignment page opens automatically.

You want to align an already existing sheet:

  1. Click the icon in this toolbar to open the Sheets form.

  2. Click the three-dots menu icon behind the sheet you want to align and select Align.

Sheets that are not yet aligned, are displayed with a yellow exclamation mark and an Align link.

  2. Click a location in one sheet, for example a corner.

  3. Then, find and click the same location in the reference object.
