In this article, you can learn how to work with basic designing tools, create booths and draw objects. Alternatively, you can have your floor plan professionally designed by our team in 5–7 business days.

At the bottom right corner of the Designer , you'll see a window to switch between meters and feet. The same window also allows you to choose the grid size: 0.1, 0.5, 1, 2, 5 or 10.

A larger grid size will help you align bigger objects, while a smaller grid helps you align elements with better precision.

To add a booth, click and drag it from the toolbar. A default booth is 10 x 10ft (3 x 3m). Click on the booth to move it or resize it. You'll also see the pop-up window on the left with booth properties, where you can rename a booth, assign its type and add a price or an exhibitor to it.

If you click the arrows on the booth, the new booth will be named sequentially and perfectly aligned.

Using hex color codes, you can customize booth colors. Copy and paste any color code, and you can customize available, on hold and sold colors in booth properties.

If you want to edit all booths of a specific color, type or price, click on one booth and then click the Select all such booths button on the left. Any changes will be applied to all selected booths.

If you need to rename all your booths, you can use the bulk rename tool. Click the tool, enter the starting booth name/number, and then click on multiple booths one by one to rename them in order.

The search bar allows you to search for one or multiple booths by name, and they will be highlighted.

Other spaces are used for stages, conference rooms, food courts, etc. Exhibitors cannot reserve them but can show descriptions and schedules.

You can drag and drop the other space in a similar way as you do booths — choose the green Booth icon under the grey one on the toolbar:

You can also convert an existing booth into another space. To do that, click on it and change the type in the booth properties window:

To add a description or a stage schedule, click on the space, then Description in its properties. You can add a text and/or hyperlink it if you have any online seminars.

You can highlight a sponsor of a particular space or a pavilion by adding their icon and (optionally) text with the company name directly on the space or next to it.

It's also possible to hide the space's name and only leave the text if you toggle Hide labels in the space properties.

You can add an event logo and custom icons to your plan. It's also possible to upload a background image (PDF, PNG, JPEG, etc.).

These tools are used to create different shapes for the floor plan backgrounds, pavilion outlines, walls, columns, etc. You can resize any shape by clicking and dragging the blue dotted corners or changing parameters in the object properties.

You can add text to your plan for aisles or entrances or make a map legend. You can also customize the font, size and color.

You can customize the font of the texts, booths and other spaces.

Don’t forget to save your progress by hitting the Save button. All versions are saved, and you can return to a previous version anytime by clicking the round arrow beside it.
