  • Show and Hide Groups

  • Filter Plans by Name

  • Filter by All Plan / Complete / Incomplete

Plan Options

Hover over a Plan within Tile View for different Plan Options.

  • Mark a Plan as Complete

  • Copy a Plan - A tip to Erase or Snip the Plan before copying. Copying duplicates everything on the Plan, including Stages and Quantities

  • Revise - allows another version of the Plan to be overlayed with the current version, updating Measurement totals without needing to fully re-measure or design
