Section 7: Seam Layout & Manipulation Seam layout Layout Estimating Buttons: When room measurement and material assignment are done, switching to the tab will automatically open a window asking you “estimating” which materials you desire to estimate. If needed you can also select the estimate icon and the software will prompt you that prior estimating info will be lost. (if seams are locked that materials information will not change) Icons: Estimate - Allows you estimate a material that was not estimated already when the initial window prompted. (I.e. different layers, material not selected during initial estimation, etc.) Horizontal - Estimate the materials in a horizontal direction. Vertical - Estimate the materials in a vertical direction. Re-Estimate - Will re-allocate the cuts in a cut sheet without changing the seams on the diagram. Set direction by edge - When toggled on, move cursor over either ends of the wall and left-Click to set layout direction along that wall. Auto Re-Estimate - When toggled on, automatically re-estimate item quantities when changes are made to the diagram. Estimate by Layer - When toggled on, items will be estimated separately by floor layers. Clear Estimate Data - Clears all data that was estimated. Add Length Seam - Adds a length seam along the same direction the material layout.
