👀 What View Mode Does
View Mode allows you to share a floorplan with clients while keeping all structural elements locked. This prevents them from accidentally moving walls, tables, furniture, or décor elements during review.
🔒 Locking Floorplan Elements
TTO includes locking tools inside the floorplan builder so you can protect key elements of your layout.
You can lock:
• 🪑 Furniture
• 🧱 Walls & structural shapes
• 🖼️ Images
• 🔳 Custom shapes
Locking ensures your layout stays perfectly in place while still being visible to clients.
👥 Why Clients Shouldn’t Edit Floorplans
Floorplans are precise, and even a small drag or resize can affect the scale. When clients have editing permissions, they may unintentionally move objects—even if instructed not to-leading to confusion and unexpected changes.
Using View Mode helps you:
• Keep everything exactly where you placed it
• Share the design safely with clients
• Avoid accidental changes during reviews
↩️ Undoing Recent Changes
If an element does get moved by accident, the floorplan builder includes tools to help you revert changes quickly.
You can:
• Restore a locked layout by reapplying locks
• Manually reposition objects
• Duplicate saved versions of floorplans if needed
An official Undo action (Cmd+Z / Ctrl+Z) is under evaluation by the product team based on planner feedback and is expected in a future update.
👤 Client Access & Editing Permissions
If a client was able to unlock elements, it may be because:
• Their collaborator role grants them access
• Locks were not applied to all elements
• A browser refresh was needed before access updated
The product team is currently investigating full “Client Lockdown” mode so that clients cannot unlock locked elements under any circumstance.
💡 Tip for Planners
Even with View Mode, it’s helpful to guide your clients:
• Let them know the layout is locked for accuracy
• Encourage them to leave comments instead of making changes
• Remind them the planner will make all structural edits
