There are three Markups Tools available in PlanSwift: Arrow (previous article), Box (below), and Pen (line) (next article).
Drawing Box Markups
You access these tools on the Home Tab.
- Set color before selecting a Markups tool by clicking the "Markup Color" button - all markups drawn use the selected color
- Click the “Markups” drop-down
You can always change the color after drawing a markup. Just select the markup and edit its properties.
- Select Box Markup from the Markups drop-down
Notice the cursor changes to indicate which tool you're using, and the Digitizer Record button turns red.
With the Box Tool selected,
- Click the point where you want to anchor one corner of the box
- Hold down the mouse button and drag your cursor to the opposite corner
- Release the mouse button to complete the box
The Box Markup Tool remains active until you click the Digitizer Record button to stop or press ESC twice on your keyboard.
