An invaluable planning tool
I use Magic Plan to plan how spaces are used. For example, I can take a tablet to a store and do “real-time” checking of how a piece of furniture would fit in a space. I also use it to plan remodeling. Drawing walls and adding windows and doors is trivial, and changing them is just as easy! The 3D view really helps envision the space. Key features I like: ability to lock dimensions, merge rooms, drag to change a wall dimension, set specific dimensions on any object, ability to see dimensions in print, and the 3D view. Overall, I find it very easy to use, and I’ve not run into critical bugs or data loss.
