Print Dialog Sections

The Sections list at the top of the Print dialog is a checkbox per printable section. Each section produces one or more pages in the resulting PDF, with its own title block. Turning a section off skips it entirely — no page, no header, no footer in the output. Turn the ones you need on, leave the rest off.

This is a reference for every built-in section: what it contains, when it auto-hides, and where its data comes from. For the rest of the dialog (paper, scale, watermark, business info), see the sibling articles in this category.

Section order in the PDF

Sections are printed in a fixed order so the resulting PDF reads like a construction document set: drawing first, then schedules in trade order.

Order	Section	When it renders
1	Floor Plan	Always when enabled
2	Door Schedule	When the project has any doors
3	Window Schedule	When the project has any windows
4	Electrical Schedule	When at least one electrical symbol is placed
5	Fixture Schedule	When at least one fixture is placed
6	Trim Schedule	When at least one opening has a non-zero trim width
7	Materials Schedule	When at least one fixture has captured material options

A section that's enabled in the dialog but has nothing to show (for example, no doors in the project) auto-suppresses — it doesn't print an empty page. This means you can leave all the schedule checkboxes on and trust the print to skip what doesn't apply.

Floor Plan

The Floor Plan section is the top-down drawing — walls, openings, fixtures, dimensions, electrical symbols, annotations, tape dims, flooring patterns. It's the section every print starts with.

What appears on the sheet:

• Every wall (exterior and interior).
• Every opening (doors, windows, pass-through openings).
• Every placed fixture honouring the Objects, Cabinetry, Electrical layers.
• Auto wall dimensions, rough-in spider dims, segment dim callouts, text annotations, leader text, AND tape dims — all when the Annotations layer is on (these all ride the same layer in v1; finer-grained per-type toggles are planned).
• Flooring patterns — not rendered on the printed sheet in v1; the Floor layer toggle has no print effect yet (planned post-v1).
• A Existing / New legend in the bottom-left corner only if at least one entity is flagged as existing construction.
• The title block in the bottom-right corner of the sheet.

What it doesn't include:

• Construction guides (horizontal / vertical / pin), unless you've explicitly enabled the Guides layer for print.
• Measurement marks (the diamond marks dropped by the Tape Measure mark modes), unless the Measurement Marks layer is on.

See Print layers and visibility for the full layer-by-layer rules.

Door Schedule

A table listing every door in the project. Columns: name, exterior/interior with subtype, size, style, slab type, hardware finish, trim width, and notes.

Auto-suppresses when the project has no doors.

The schedule is what door suppliers and installers need to order and hang the right hardware. It pairs naturally with the floor plan — the door tags on the drawing reference the rows in this schedule.

Window Schedule

A table listing every window. Columns: name, size (width × height), sill height, trim width, and notes.

Auto-suppresses when the project has no windows.

Like the door schedule, this is the takeoff sheet for the window supplier. Sill height comes from the per-opening field you set in the entity panel; window size and trim follow the opening's recorded dimensions.

Electrical Schedule

A row per placed electrical symbol — outlets, switches, lights, panels, GFCI / AFCI variants, low-voltage symbols. Columns: symbol (architectural glyph in a legend column), type, mount height, voltage, amperage, new vs existing, and notes.

Auto-suppresses when no electrical symbols are placed.

The legend column doubles as a symbol key — the row's architectural glyph appears next to its description so the schedule is self-explanatory to anyone reading the sheet without VisionPlan open.

Fixture Schedule

A table listing every non-electrical fixture — toilets, vanities, tubs, showers, sinks, washer/dryer, kitchen appliances, cabinets, furniture, custom boxes. Columns: type, name, size, and key options (counter material, base type, finish, etc. when captured).

Auto-suppresses when the project has no fixtures.

The fixture schedule is the room's furniture / fitting takeoff. It captures what the room contains; the materials schedule (below) captures what those fixtures are made of.

Trim Schedule

A table listing every opening that has a non-zero trim width set on it. Columns: opening type, room, dimensions, and trim width.

Auto-suppresses when no opening has a trim width recorded.

Useful when you're sending the door / window schedules to one trade and the trim takeoff to a separate carpenter. As more trim sources land (wall baseboard, wall crown), they'll flow into this same section.

Materials Schedule

A table summarising material choices captured on fixtures. Columns: fixture, counter material, base material, wall finish — one row per fixture, three material columns side-by-side.

Auto-suppresses when no fixture has captured material options.

The materials schedule is the per-fixture finish takeoff. v1 reads from fixture options only; future releases will pick up wall and floor material as those fields land in the editor.

Mode awareness

The schedule content is mode-agnostic — same columns, same data, in both Customer and Contractor mode. What changes per mode is the title block above the schedule (business info vs homeowner info) and the per-mode default settings the dialog remembers.

See Show business info on print for the title block side.

Plugin sections

Future trade-specific apps can register their own sections (tile cut lists, plumbing rough-in takeoffs, etc.). When a plugin section is registered, it appears in the Sections list with a small plugin badge so you can tell it apart from the built-in sections.

In v1 there are no plugin sections shipped — the badge is wired up but you won't see it until a marketplace section is installed.

Tips

• Most users leave every schedule checkbox on and trust the auto-suppression rules to skip what doesn't apply. The only common reason to manually disable a schedule is when you're sending a partial document set (for example, floor plan only to a client, schedules only to a supplier).
• The Floor Plan section is required if you want a drawing in the output. Disabling it gives you a schedule-only PDF — useful for quick takeoff sheets without the drawing.
• Section toggles persist between print runs, per app mode. The next time you open the Print dialog, the same checkboxes are remembered.
• An empty section that auto-suppressed doesn't bump the sheet count. The title block's "Sheet X of Y" tracks the actual pages produced, not the enabled checkboxes.
