Room Basics
Updated by Darren Knight
A good estimate starts with a good takeoff. XactRemodel Studios helps you capture those dimensions and make them usable as you build an estimate.
Get started with a floor plan by drawing a room.
Creating rooms
Rooms are created by drawing an entire room at once by using the Room tool or by drawing each wall using the Wall tool. New rooms can be attached to existing rooms or stand separately.

Room tool | R | |
Wall tool | SHIFT + W |
Additional rooms can be created using walls from existing rooms.
Resizing rooms
Resize by dragging a wall
Rooms can also be resized by dragging a wall.
- Select the wall to move
- Click, hold, and drag the wall to the desired location.
When you drag a wall, you have the option to resize a room or add a new room. After dragging a wall, click anywhere on the canvas to resize the room. To add a new room and keep the dimensions of the existing room, click the plus button that appears in the newly created area.
Resize by editing a dimension
Rooms can be resized by editing their dimensions.
- Move a wall that is adjacent to the dimension to be changed.
- The dimensions that can be edited will appear.
- Select the dimension to edit.
- Enter the desired dimension value.
Resize by dragging a vertex
Rooms can be resized by dragging an existing vertex.
- Select any wall that the vertex is on.
- Click, hold, and drag the vert vertex to the desired location.
