Edit Markups

Modified on Tue, 29 Oct at 7:00 AM

The plans module allows you to edit the markups that you created at any time. This is useful if you want to alter the markup elements, resize or relocate them, edit the text notes etc., as required, even after you have published your markups.

Note: You can only view the markups created by other stakeholders and shared with you and cannot edit them.

To edit a markup

  • Open the plan sheet and choose the markup you want to view and edit from the drop-down at the top
  • Click the 'Edit Markup'button at the top-right to open the markup in 'Edit' mode
  • Open the layer editor on the left to view the list of layer elements in the markup

  • Select the layer element you want to edit by clicking it on the plan sheet

You can edit existing markup elements and add new elements as required:

Shape tools - Square/rectangle, circle/ellipse, triangle, polygonal and cloud

  • Use the handles at the corners to resize the shape
