How to use Count Tool in TakeOff

This article will guide you through the process of using PlanHub's Count tool to tally objects on a plan page.

 

Step 1: Start by clicking Count on the toolbar.

 

 

Step 2: Give the tool a name that represents the objects you're tallying. In this case, we're naming it "Doors".

 

 

Step 3: Choose a color that stands out on the page. We're selecting a bright red for this example.

 

 

Step 4: Open the Shape menu by clicking it.

 

 

Step 5: Select the specific shape you want to stamp onto the page. We're using a red star for every door in this example.

 

 

 

 

Step 6: Adjust the size of the stamp by moving the slider to the right or left. Once you're ready, click Set.

 

 

Step 7: Your cursor will change to a crosshair. Hover over the object you're counting and click to place a stamp.

 

 

 

 

Step 8: Each click places a stamp and adds to the running tally on the right side of the page.

 

 

Step 9: To edit your measurements, click the Select Arrow at the top of the command bar.

 

 

Step 10: Click to select a shape. You can drag it to a new position by holding down the left mouse button.

 

 

Step 11: To delete a stamp, select it with a click then press Delete on your keyboard. Note that deleting a stamp reduces your tally.

 

 

Step 12: If you need to restore a deleted stamp, use the Undo button on the command bar.

 

 

By following these steps, you'll be able to effectively use PlanHub's Count tool to tally objects on your plan page.
