Notice: Undefined index: StraighteningMaps in /home/devtable/public_html/platsketch.com/tutorial.php on line 114

If you are using a scanned map, it will almost always be crooked. In PlatSketch, you can easily straighten it.

If your map is completely sideways or upside-down, you can just click Rotate one or two times.

If the map is just crooked, click Straighten . An arrow will appear in the middle of the map pointing up. Now press your mouse down anywhere on the map and pull your mouse up or down. The map will rotate around its center, the circle on the back of the arrow. Once you have straightened the map, you can click back to the Drawing mode if you like.
