Create Default Projects

The default projects are the 6 possible floorplans that the user can select to start his project. They have to be created and configured by application distribution. This section presents how to create default projects, how to configure them in application distribution and how to test them.

 

Create a default project

Open the Bathroom planner but before creating a default project, you need to login through:

▪ User credentials (a user with contributor right).
▪ Legal authentication (API key and Secret key followed by Application distribution identifier)

Open the console of your browser and you need to locate the planner URL like https://bathroom.enterprise.by.me/Bathroom/?ln=en-GB

To enable the default project creation, a new URL parameter needs to be added at the end of the URL of the planner &mode=DefaultProjectCreation. An example: https://bathroom.enterprise.by.me/Bathroom/?ln=en-GB&mode=DefaultProjectCreation

Now, you can draw the customized default room shape in floorplan step. To save the room shape, click save.

Save of the default project is available in 6 possible mapping between key and project as shown in fig2.

Mapping available Fig.2: Mapping available

Select the shape and click save as shown in fig3.

Save Default room Fig.3: Save Default room

The default project will be saved in the selected shape.

Note: The 6 svg symbols cannot be changed.

Default project object in application distribution parameters

A change is needed in the application distribution settings of the application in order to load them. It can be done, either by 3DCloudbyme or by API Web services.

Open 3DCloudbyme and click App Settings as shown in fig 4. According to the selection of existing application, parameters are available. To know more about parameters, refer to parameters reference document 🔗

Application Distribution Fig.4: Application Distribution

In the settings json object, update the project.roomShapes properties. This object represents all the projects that can be customized (do not use default project defined by 3DVIA).

You can see the details of roomShapes attribute in the section here: Application Distribution Settings 🔗.

Test the created project

After creating the project and changing the application parameters, check the changes in the application.

  • Since the application has its own default project (6 projects shown in fig 3), it is important that user should be able to customize any of these 6 projects to create their own default project.
  • Also, whenever the application opens, the user will have to manually open the saved project by selecting in the room shape as shown in fig 5 and fig 6. The application will always open the project "closedKitchen1".
  • Once the default room is changed, it will be available for all users for that particular environment (staging or main), since the parameter has been modified for the application and not for a particular user.

For other room shape access, click Initiate plan followed by clicking change the room shape as shown in fig 5.

Select the room shape and click Validate.

Selection of room Fig.6: Selection of room

It will open the default project created.

If not visible, here are two potential errors:

  • Application parameters are not set correctly.
  • The default project was not saved (check user rights).

Limitations

▪ The svg symbols for each of the 6 room shapes cannot be changed.
▪ The customized default project will only be saved in the environment (staging or main) in which it was created. To have similar customized default projects, you will have to create it again in that particular environment (staging or main) and save it.
