This pages describes the visual changes possible for the infrastructure design and layouts in Pathfinder.
In Pathfinder all infrastructure and components are visualized in a top-down perspective. This perspective contains four layers nested within each other: locations, buildings, floors and rooms.
The respective layers have various visual customization options for the network design.
The top view of each layer includes the background image on which all elements of the next layer are displayed. For example, the floors are displayed as the top view inside buildings, rooms inside floors and so on. For background images, raster formats (.jpeg, .png etc.) and vector formats (AutoCAD, .dwg, .svg) are supported.
You can use the mouse wheel to zoom in and out of the screen and press and drag the mouse wheel to move the map around.
If you want to add objects in the top view, select the corresponding option from the context menu.
