Edit geometry overlays on plan images

Adjust and refine geometry overlays on an image so quantities align accurately with your material schedule.

Audience

This guide is designed for project manager.

Steps​

Step 1: Open the geometry overlay editor​

Navigate to the plan or item view where the image is shown with its geometry overlay; the editor appears over the image when geometry display is enabled.

Open the geometry overlay editor

Step 2: Select the material schedule item to edit​

Click the relevant material schedule item in the list to make it active; its associated geometry is highlighted on the image.

Select the material schedule item to edit

Step 3: Review the existing geometry points​

Move your pointer over the image to see the existing points that define the geometry (point, line or polygon) for the selected item.

Review the existing geometry points

Step 4: Drag points to adjust geometry​

Click and drag any visible point to a new position on the image; the geometry updates immediately so it aligns with the real-world location.

Step 5: Add a new point between existing points​

Use the add-point control (Plus icon) while a point or edge is selected to insert a new point midway between two existing points, allowing finer shaping of the geometry.

Step 6: Remove an unnecessary point​

Use the remove-point control (Minus icon) when a point is selected to delete it, as long as the geometry keeps the minimum required number of points.

Step 7: Switch between different items' geometries​

Change the active material schedule item using the list or selector; the editor updates to show and let you adjust the chosen item's geometry.
