Managing Floors

Floors are associated with buildings and store images of maps. The floors

allow you to position printers on a co-ordinate system.

Adding a Floor

1 Click FileNew Floor or click

on the toolbar.

The

Add New Floor window appears.

2 Type the floor name.

NOTE:

You must use a unique name for every floor in a building.

If you have multiple buildings, you can use the format Building Name–Floor
Name

to name the floors so that you can easily distinguish them.

3 Select the building to which you want to associate this floor.
4 Click

to browse and select a map image of the floor.

NOTE:

The map image must be in .png format and must be already scaled to

the needed size. It is recommended that you scale the image so that you can

easily fit multiple printers next to each other relative to their actual location.

NOTE:

It is recommended to use black and white images for maps showing

only the walls, entrances and physical objects on the floor. Images with more

objects are of larger size and take longer to load on end user’s computer.

5 Click Add.
