Quickstart draft planning

The Draft Planning Quickstart gives you an overview of the most important functions for creating a CAD plan. The aim is to create a draft for a fictitious private garden and then to print it.

The quickstart films were based on DATAflor GREENXPERT created. However, the Quickstart can also be used with the others DATAflor Run CAD products.

However, due to the product-specific interfaces, it is possible that commands in the menu are sorted differently. If a command cannot be found in the specified menu, please use the search in the Menu browser. As soon as you enter the command in the search field, the command is displayed in the list with its position in the menu and can also be called up directly here. You can find information on this in the film The user interface.
