Some wishes
I have been working with this tool for a short time but I can already appreciate its power and possibilities. The use that I am giving it is particular because my work is not related to it. From my current experience with the tool I would like to suggest some possibilities.
Levels That can be grouped by their own categories. For example:
Structure
Furniture
Electricity
Plumbing
Air conditioner
etc.
And that all levels of a category can be made invisible.
Catalogue The catalog could be edited in such a way that:
That the names of the categories in the catalog can be changed
Categories could be deleted or created
Elements could be moved from one category to another
Elements could be renamed or deleted
Objects Understanding by objects: walls, rooms, polylines, dimensions, texts, and furniture ... - See could know to which level each object belongs - The object could be changed from one level to another
By pressing the right button on an object a floating menu appears with only the actions that can be done with that object, and at the end the attributes will appear grouped by similarity.
That by double-clicking on the object a floating window with the object's attributes appears (as is done now) but that this window is structured with tabs according to the similarities of the attributes (dimensions, placement on the plane, colors and textures, etc. ..) and that it is the same for all objects, although only the active attributes of each object can be edited (for example, a wall object has no ceiling and therefore the attribute would appear but disabled and cannot be edited).
Create a lock attribute for each object and that if this object is activated it cannot be moved, resized, deleted or any of its attributes changed.
Features - A cutting tool would be a great help for everything. - A stretch/compress tool would also be helpful.
One final question/suggestion: a texture could have percentage of transparency

Re: Some wishes
Great input, i just had the idea aswell, that is why i registred.
I haven't seen this idea in any program yet. Layers for your house.
Gimp has it, Simcity 4 has it and in reality it is the same
You order different workers for different layers. Walls > roof > Water / Electricity > floor and walls to make it nicer ... whatever - iam not 100% sure but these layers would be really helpful.
It would be also great to put like tubes and holes in walls to lay down LAN and electricitry cables and water tubes through the house.
This would be especially amazing for a technician room.
