š 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 dƩcor elements during review.
š Locking Floorplan Elements
TTO includes locking tools inside the floorplan builder so you can protect key elements of your layout.
You can lock:
⢠šŖ Furniture
⢠𧱠Walls & structural shapes
⢠š¼ļø Images
⢠š³ Custom shapes
Locking ensures your layout stays perfectly in place while still being visible to clients.
š„ Why Clients Shouldnāt 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 objectsāeven 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
ā©ļø Recover an Accidental Change
If something is moved, added, or removed by accident, select Undo in the top toolbar. Select Redo to reapply the most recent action you undid.
For step-by-step guidance, see How to Use Undo & Redo in the Floorplan / Plot Plan.
š¤ 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
š” Tip for Planners
Even with View Mode, itās 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
