3D House Planner Software Pro

Details about all functions of the 3D CAD software

Get to know our smart 3D House Planner Pro software even better now. We present all features in detail again below and explain which numerous functions are available to you.

General

Intuitive user interface

If you are familiar with the Windows interface and can use Office programs, you will quickly find your way around our 3D house planner software. Our interface and commands are very well structured and it is always the same processes for different components.

Unlimited projects

You can save your projects in any place, it doesn’t matter how many projects you draw, you have an unlimited number and the program always stays the same speed.

Automatic layer assignment

As a professional CAD, the 3D house planner has a layer management. In addition to creating new layers, there is an automatic assignment during house planning. Thus, the user does not need to worry about whether the wall or window is drawn on the correct layer.

Unrestricted input of floor plans accurate to the millimeter

The floor plans can be created completely freely with the help of our construction tools during the house planning. There is neither a grid restriction nor a size restriction. From one room to a residential complex, everything is possible. As usual with a professional CAD, the input and output is accurate to the millimeter.

3D floor management

The user needs to enter the 3rd dimension (height of walls, ceilings, floors) only once – in our floor management the floor height input is clear and very simple. The best thing is: when the heights of the floor change, the heights of all affected components also change automatically.

Unlimited 3D parts (changeable or to be created by yourself)

A comprehensive component catalog is available. But if that’s not enough, just define your parts yourself and store them in their own catalogs. All very easy to do.

Edit project data

Project data can be entered in detail, such as client, address, planner and the like.

Import & Export

Import and export images

In our Pro version it is possible to import image files, these can be stored in the planning or simply inserted on the plan. Also the plan itself, or the visualization in 3D can be exported as an image in common image file formats.

Export as X3D or VRML

An export of the house design in the above mentioned 3D formats is possible, so the project can be read and further processed in other programs that use these interfaces.

3D components

Automatic floors and ceilings

Once the first walls enclose a room, the associated floor and ceiling are created. The thicknesses for these components are to be defined in the storey settings. When the height changes, these components are automatically adjusted.

Automatic rooms

If the walls enclose a room, then the room is immediately recognized and the m2 for the room area is available as info. As soon as a wall is moved, the rooms and also the m2 are updated.

Variable windows and doors

Our components windows and doors have to offer a very large catalog of components. Each component can be changed and also permanently saved again. Thus, the user can create his own components very well.

Automatic stairs

When it comes to stairs, there’s almost nothing that can’t be done. All stair shapes can be designed and the beauty of it is that the stairs are automatically calculated so that the tread widths and the riser heights always get sensible values. Of course, the values can then still be changed and adjusted.

Automatic roofs

A 3D roof at the push of a button? This is not a problem in our 3D house planner. The roof intersections are fully automatic and the roof can be changed at any time. Whether hipped roof, gable roof or complicated roof shapes, everything is possible. And, of course, the walls intersect under the roof.

NEW! Extended dormers

The component dormers is completely revised. You can add any dormers to your roof with just a few clicks. These dormers, like the main roof itself, are to be processed subsequently. Change or move their dormers quickly and accurately measured. Especially in the first draft phase, quick changes are desired and very useful.

2D elements in construction mode

If a 3D floor plan is to be supplemented as a drawing, for example, 2D drawing elements such as lines, polygons and circles are required for this. These 2D elements are available in the design.

Planning aids

NEW! Easy Edit

With the ‘Easy Edit’ tool, they can click on their room dimensions and change them by simply entering the new dimensions. All without having to move a wall with commands – simply and at the touch of a button! Determine how the space should change: Center, to the left and to the right. All changes are immediately applied and visible in the 3D model – the revolution in 3D house planning!

Online dimensions

Our online dimensions are unique – simply click on a component such as a window or door in the design or in 3D and all the important dimensions appear. Simply move the mouse over it and when the pencil is displayed, click on it and change it.

Planning aids, such as coordinate trackers, auxiliary lines, grids, etc.

To ensure that the planning of the walls in the floor plan succeeds well, there are very good aids for this in the 3D house planner. With the coordinate tracker, you can determine the direction of the wall with the mouse and simply enter the length using the keyboard. Guides can of course also be set with spacing.

Editing functions

A wall or a window is to be moved subsequently? Walls are shortened or lengthened? Or components and objects are to be copied. All doable with our extensive editing features.

Various representations in the floor plan

In our Pro version fills, hatches and also line thicknesses can be hidden, this has an advantage when designing that you can see and edit very precisely the planning and find existing snap points well.

Texts and dimensions

Dimensions

Of course, dimension elements are available in the construction view. These can be completely customized from the look (text height and dimension lines) and saved.

Advanced dimensioning functions

In addition to the extensions of the dimensioning types (e.g. distance dimensioning), it is possible to edit the dimensioning and also save it as your own standard.

Texts

Of course, texts are available as single texts and text blocks in the planning.

Catalogs and textures

Extensive texture catalog

Change surfaces inside and outside? Simply drag and drop the desired surface from the texture catalog into the planning. The software automatically detects entire rooms or the exterior geometry of the house.

Extensive object catalog

It should be furnished the apartment or house? Or maybe the garden or the surrounding area needs to be landscaped? Use our extensive object catalog from kitchens, living rooms or bathrooms to watering cans for the garden – very many objects are available.

3D mode / visualization

Visualization

View the house inside or outside in 3D is wonderful in our 3D representation. For a great visualization our fast shadow calculation in 3D mode helps.

Real-time shadow

Once the shadows are calculated, you can continue to edit the project without any problems and the shadows will remain on the model. This eliminates tedious calculation times and the model always retains the shadow calculation even when switching to construction mode.

Light sources

Besides the lighting settings for sunlight, additional light sources can be used. So light source outdoors and of course for the interior, each object can be assigned a light source.

Background brush

If a background is inserted as an image, the background brush can be used to transfer surfaces into the planning.

Outputs / Print

Printout of the planning possible at any time

Floor plans and 3D views can be easily printed at any time. Of course, the floor plan remains true to scale. The paper format can also be selected as desired.

Print as PDF

In addition to the general print functions, the planning or the 3D view can be printed directly from the 3D House Planner pro as a PDF.
