Measure the drawings. Count the work. Price the job.
These settings are only for TakeoffCraft, and you can change them only here, in the app.
Which build of TakeoffCraft this is. Give these lines when you report a problem.
Loading the menu styles…
How lengths read on the sheet, in the panels and in the status bar. Follow Global uses the metric length unit you starred in Settings › Global › Units (feet-inches when none is starred). Only the display changes: quantities, costs and exports are worked out from the exact lengths.
How an item's temperature reads in the panels, and what a bare number means when you type one. Follow Global uses the temperature unit you starred in Settings › Global › Units (°C when lengths are metric, °F otherwise). Only the display changes: the value is kept exactly.
How lengths read on the sheet, in the panels and in the status bar. Only the display is rounded: quantities, costs and exports are worked out from the exact lengths (exports show 1/16").
The symbol shown before prices, in the tables, the bid and the exports. It only changes how amounts are written: nothing is converted, so type your rates in this currency.
Every item you make from now on starts with this waste. You can still change it per item, and items you already have keep theirs.
Where the Match slider is when a search finishes. Lower finds more look-alikes for you to reject; higher offers fewer. 75% is the start.
Door openings and gaps up to this wide count as closed when the Room tool fills a room. Wider than your widest door lets a room run into the next one.
A drawing's lines often stop a hair short of each other. The Path tool joins lines whose ends are closer than this. 1.5 is a good start; [ and ] change it while you pick.
While you measure or calibrate, a point near a line of the PDF jumps to its end, its midpoint, a crossing, or the nearest point on it, and a marker shows which. F3 or Snap in the status bar turns it on and off. Scanned sheets have no lines to snap to.
Runs, outlines and cut-outs then go at 0°, 45°, 90° or 135° from the last point; hold Shift to click at any angle. Arc points and circles are never snapped.
In the 3D check view only. The view cube sits at the top right: click a face, edge or corner to look from there, drag it to orbit, drag the compass ring to turn. The axis icon is a small X, Y, Z marker at the bottom left. The flat sheet has neither.
Select Workspace Theme
From add-ons and files
Ticked: the layout you pick above is kept for this app alone, and the other apps keep theirs. Unticked: it follows the choice for every app. In SuperCad Studio the layout follows the app you are working in.
Every app that has the workspace you pick opens in it; the others keep their toolbar and panels. Your toolbar style, menus and keys stay as they are.
A layout is a .ccworkspace.json file: data only, read as untrusted. It arranges the same building blocks in every app; each app fills them with its own tools. Drop a .ccworkspace.json file here to import it.
Work environments. Save your whole setup under a name (the layout, menu style and keys, toolbar, panels and My tools, for every app) and switch between setups. The theme and the language stay as they are.
Lost a toolbar, a menu or a panel?
Puts the toolbar (order, lock and buttons), the panels, the screen mode and the menu style back to how TakeoffCraft starts. Your theme, language, sizes and TakeoffCraft's own settings stay as they are.
How the tool icons look in layouts that use the CadCraft icon set, like Duncan.
The icons are vector drawings: they stay sharp at any size and follow Interface size.
The theme applies to every CadCraft app and the site.
The language applies to every CadCraft app. The app reloads to change it.
Global settings: each app can have its own measurement settings and defaults too.
Switch a unit on to see it in the unit lists. The star marks the default for new drawings, measures and items. These choices are the same in every app in this browser.
Loading the units…
A file keeps its own unit (a drawing's units, a project's feet or meters), and that unit stays in its list even when it is turned off here.
Sharing your hardware specs allows us to build more efficient engines. The information is aggregated and not associated with your account: the graphics card, processor cores, memory and screen size, the browser and system family, and the app — no files, no name, no address.
Off: no app starts its tour by itself. Each app's own settings can still turn its tour off, or take it again.
Browsers allow full screen only after a click or key press, so it starts on your first click in the drawing.
Toolbar rows
Wrap shows every group. 2 rows and 1 row keep the drawing taller; scroll the toolbar sideways for the rest.
On a touch screen (swipe the toolbar for more, or let it wrap)
Arrange: drag tools within their group, and drag a group by its name.
Right-click the toolbar (or long-press it) for Arrange, Lock and Reset.
Fingers on the drawing, once you use a pen here
The pen's side button, its eraser end and the finger taps are set in Input devices, where they can run any command.
With Only move the view, one finger on the drawing does nothing and two fingers move and zoom it. These choices are for this device, in every app. A pen is noticed the first time you use one here.
The bars, toolbars, panels and dialogs of TakeoffCraft, bigger or smaller; the drawing keeps its own zoom. Panel text size works on top of it.
Compact tightens the row heights, panel padding, toolbar buttons and panel text of TakeoffCraft, so more fits on the screen. A touch screen keeps its large targets either way.
You can also drag a panel's inner edge. Double-click the edge to put it back.
Panel widths apply when the panels sit beside the drawing (wider windows).
Drag a panel by its name to dock it left, right or at the bottom, or drop it over the drawing to float it. A new window can go on your other screen. Reset layout puts every panel back where it started.
In a panel with several sections, opening one (by clicking its heading or by choosing a tool in the menu) closes the others so the panel stays on what you are doing. The lock beside a heading keeps that section open. Turn this off to open and close sections yourself.
Add-ons add features to TakeoffCraft. Switching one off takes effect at once; some need a reload to go completely.
Developer mode is on: add-ons that are not signed can load. Only use add-ons you trust.
