Editorial brief — draft. Answer what separates a general drawing tool from a practical low-voltage floor-plan workflow.

Required feature groups

  • Fast baseline creation from survey notes, PDF, image, or measured sketch.
  • Scale, pan/zoom, floors, snapping, layers, revisions, and print readability.
  • Discipline-aware symbols, counts, labels, legends, cable/conduit paths, and device schedules.
  • Exports that remain usable by estimators, installers, customers, and project managers.
  • Mobile/foldable usability, permissions, autosave, recovery, and support.

Original evidence
