If your goal is simply to experiment with different furniture arrangements in a room, you might not need the level of detail that Visio provides.
However, because Visio is designed to provide architectural and engineering precision, your scaled diagrams are as accurate as your measurements. All Visio templates have a pre-set drawing scale, but for most business diagrams, such as flowcharts or organization charts, that scale is that is, no scale. Visio sets up the floorplan page using the template's scale and units of measure , which are typically inches although Visio includes metric templates as well.
If you prefer to measure Visio shapes in yards or meters or some other measurement unit, you can by using the Page Setup command on the File menu, which is also how you set the drawing scale.
In addition, the Visio Floor Plan template also adds a new menu: the Plan menu, which includes commands specifically for working in this type of drawing. When you start a floor plan with a scaled template, the floorplan page reflects the measurement units of that scale much as a map reflects the scale shown in its legend. The units of measure for the drawing scale appear on the rulers and the grid and are displayed automatically in the dimension line shapes that you can add to walls.
Part of what you have to do when working in a Visio floor plan or any scaled drawing is grow accustomed to measuring distance in real-world units. That's because the rulers display the real- world measurements so that you position and size shapes in terms of the physical space or object you're designing. When you print the page, however, Visio ensures that it fits on regular letter-sized paper. After you set up the drawing scale you want, you start by adding shapes that represent the structure of your building.
One way to do this is to drag wall shapes onto the page and rotate them into position. Where two walls meet, Visio joins their corners automatically for a smooth look. All the other structural shapes, such as doors and windows, are designed to snap to the wall shapes in a building layout.
However, when you're planning a new space, you can instead use the Space shape, which represents a foot-by- foot area. You can lay out a patchwork of space shapes, and then combine them into a single area by using the Union command, which merges shapes to create a new shape.
Then you can convert the space into walls. Although this technique sounds like it takes several steps, most people find it easier to lay out rooms and create walls in this fashion rather than drag out individual wall shapes. When you need to measure areas precisely, Visio offers several helpful shortcuts. Some Visio shapes display their size - for example, the Space shape displays sq.
The status bar below the floorplan page reflects the real- world units of measure, so you can see at a glance how large shapes really are and exactly where a wall goes. Guide lines can help you align shapes to an exact point as well. Shapes connect to guides to ensure perfect alignment, and you can even drag a guide to move all the shapes connected to it- a very efficient technique. Visio's built-in connection behavior also helps you attach dimension lines to the walls they measure.
As you move or resize walls, the dimension lines stay connected and update measurements as they change. In this exercise, you start a new Visio floor plan with the Visio Floor Plan template and use the Page Setup command to customize the drawing scale. You rough out the area you want to show with Space shapes, which you then combine into a single shape and convert to walls- a faster way of creating the outline of a building than simply dragging wall shapes onto the page.
The Plan menu is added to the menu bar. Visio changes the drawing scale and recalculates the dimensions displayed in the Page size in measurement units boxes. The rulers display the new drawing scale and show that the floorplan page represents an area 44 feet wide and 34 feet tall. The Space shape remains selected. Your screen should look similar to the figure on the following page. Visio displays a status bar as it converts the perimeter of the shape to wall shapes and adds dimension line shapes to each wall.
Visio adds a guide to the wall shape's top edge and connects the adjoining walls to the guide so that you can move them together. The guide is selected. Your screen should look similar to the figure on the following page; however, your dimensions might not match exactly. Visio moves the guide and all three walls that are connected to it to the new position and updates the dimension lines.
The shapes should look similar as on the figure. For example, you can create maps, parts drawings, and physical network diagrams to scale by using the Page Setup command on the File menu to define a drawing scale. You don't have to start with a Visio template to create a scaled floor plan, but an advantage of doing so is that the template opens stencils of shapes designed to work in the drawing scale. The Visio Floor Plan template includes many specialized Visio shapes and tools for working in a floorplan scale.
Wall shapes join together to form smooth corners. Door and window shapes drop into place on top of walls, rotating if necessary to match the wall's orientation. One way in which Visio Floor Plan shapes are unusual is that they're designed to match standard architectural sizes. Because of this, some shapes are locked to prevent you from resizing them with the mouse. To change their size, you must edit the shape's built-in property that controls its dimensions.
For example, a Door shape has a Door Width property that you can set to 24, 28, 30, 36, 48, 60, or 72 inches- standard door widths. Visio resizes the shape based on your selection. You can change a shape's properties from its shortcut menu, which might contain other specialized commands for editing the shape. For example, you can't rotate or flip a door to change its orientation.
In this exercise, you add doors, windows, and furniture to an office of The Office Floor Company. You start by opening a sample floor plan, OfficeWalls. You work with shape properties and shortcut menu commands to edit door and window shapes. Finally, you add furniture to the rooms. Visio opens a diagram showing the outline of two adjoining rooms in a scaled Visio floor plan and displays the five Visio floor plan stencils.
When you release the mouse, Visio connects the door to the wall, displaying red selection handles to show that the shapes are connected, and padlock handles to show that the door is locked to prevent resizing. Visio flips the window to match the wall's orientation and then connects the window to the wall shape, displaying red selection handles and padlock handles.
