How to name a room/surface correctly

Why is this important?
The BBMI Standard has certain rules that determine if a room/surface can be marked as living space, other area, outdoor space or external storage. Our system uses the name of a room/surface in Floorplanner to assign it to the right category. If the name of a room/surface is not filled in correctly, the system can’t assign the room/surface to the correct category and the calculation will not represent the expected results.
How to set the room/surface name in Floorplanner?
There are two ways in Floorplanner to set the name of a room/surface:
1. You can select a default roomtype:
- Click on the surface
- Click on the roomtype option in the sidebar on the left
- Select the desired roomtype from the list
- Click back to settings
2. You can set a custom room name:
- Click on the surface
- Click on the settings option in the sidebar on the left
- Fill in the desired room name
- Click back to settings
