Wall Setup

Start every project by defining the wall you're working with. Accurate dimensions ensure your on-screen layout maps to the real world.

• Guided SetupStarting a new project on desktop or mobile can open Guided Setup, a five-step walkthrough that builds your first wall with you: pick a wall size and color, add frames, choose an Auto-Layout, then optionally add photos and let Smart Fill match them to frames. Prefer a ready-made arrangement? Apply a Starter Layout on the Frames step, and Guided Setup will ask before running Auto-Layout so your layout isn't rearranged. Skip it anytime, replay it later from Help → Guided Setup on desktop or Menu → Guided Setup on mobile, or turn off Show Guided Setup when creating a new project in Settings.
• Dimensions & UnitsEnter your wall width and height in inches or centimeters. Switch between imperial and metric at any time — the unit system is saved per project. Walls can be up to 50 ft (15 m) per side and 1,000 sq ft in total. To change your wall size later: on desktop, click an empty spot on the wall so nothing is selected, and the Wall Properties panel on the right shows the width and height. If that panel is hidden, click the small arrow tab on the right edge of the screen to bring it back. On mobile, tap Edit with nothing selected.
• Wall TypesChoose Flat for a standard wall, or Staircase (Ascending / Descending) for angled walls above a stairway. Set the Rise (%) to match your measured slope.
• Wall ObjectsProPut the real features of your wall on the canvas: Window, Door, Fireplace, TV, Light switch, Thermostat, Sconce, Shelf, Vent, Headboard, and Sofa presets, plus a Custom size for anything else. On desktop, open the Frames panel and click Add Frame → Objects; on mobile, tap Library → Object. Wall Objects draw as simple schematics on the canvas and in your exports, and they stay movable — but Auto-Layout and Smart Fill treat them as obstacles.
• Wall ColorSet the background color to match your actual wall paint. This helps you preview how frames and photos will look in context.
• Add WallProOne wall doesn't have to be the whole plan. Click the + Add Wall button next to your wall on the canvas — or right-click the empty workspace (press and hold on mobile) and choose Add Wall — to add another wall to the same project. Walls line up side by side with a shared floor line: drag a wall's label to reorder, rename it in Wall Properties, and deleting a wall returns its frames to your inventory with their photos intact.
• Wall TexturesGo beyond flat paint — preview your gallery on brick, shiplap, wood paneling, or even a furnished room scene, or upload a photo of your actual wall. With nothing selected, use the Wall Texture control in the Properties panel on desktop (or right-click the wall), or open the Edit sheet on mobile and scroll to Wall Texture. A starter set of textures is free; the full Premium Wall Textures collection and custom photos are Pro.
• Clear CanvasRemove all frames from the canvas in one step — they return to your library, nothing is deleted, and it's undoable. On desktop, open Wall Properties with nothing selected; on mobile, tap Edit with nothing selected.
