Unleash Your Creative Potential with PrototypeStudio
One of the standout features of BLT SMRT Foundry is PrototypeStudio, a tool that empowers users working on prototypical projects to quickly flesh out their designs with interior finishes. With just a few clicks, you can assign finishes to a room profile defined by name and number, and watch as the plugin automatically models floor, ceiling, and wall finishes. This feature not only saves time but also ensures accuracy and consistency throughout your project.

Elevate Your Views with Elevation Outliner
BLT SMRT Foundry also includes Elevation Outliner, a feature that adds a distinct graphic border to your elevation views, reminiscent of traditional drafting software. This not only enhances the visual appeal of your project but also makes it easier to navigate and understand your elevations. The attention to detail provided by Elevation Outliner truly sets your documentation apart from the rest.

Organizing your views on sheets can be a complex task, especially when dealing with numerous views.

This feature not only saves time but also ensures a clean and professional presentation of your project.
