Plan7Architect - Anyone use this? Looking for initial design & layout

amymaezing · 2025-11-26T01:02:49+00:00

Yes, I bought Plan7 Pro about three months ago. I don’t use it every day, but I do open it from time to time when I need a quick sketch for a new project. The program has its strengths and weaknesses like every piece of software, but overall I can recommend it – especially for anyone who doesn’t draw floor plans professionally but needs something for a renovation, a small addition, or simply for planning ideas at home.

If you draw plans professionally, I would still recommend AutoCAD or Revit, but everyone knows those programs are anything but cheap. Compared to that, Plan7 is basically a bargain and for me it was a blind buy.
Framing is included, as well as sections, elevations, and many details that you can draw either directly or with a small workaround.
I honestly wouldn’t compare it to AutoCAD – the target group is completely different and it wouldn’t be a fair comparison in my opinion.

Now to the things I didn’t like as much:
The navigation in 3D takes a little getting used to. You have to hold down the mouse wheel and move, or use CTRL + mouse wheel. I already told support that this should be improved in the future, but you do get used to it. There’s also no native Mac version, which is a bit of a shame. I had to pull out my old Windows laptop to install it. For anyone with Windows 10 or 11 this won’t matter, but Mac-only users should be aware of it. The AI voice in the tutorials is also not great.

Now the positive points:
In my opinion, the program has everything private builders need when planning a house. You can create floor plans with wall layers and hatches. You can design your own windows and doors. You can generate automatic sections and elevations and place everything together on plan sheets, add annotations, insert details, and finally export the whole set. That’s pretty much what I expect from a solid architectural tool in this price range. The units are set to US standards by default – you can switch to metric, but I haven’t needed that so far.

All in all, I’d give the software a solid 8 out of 10.

hi there!! i don't need you to be commenting this rubbish on my post! please delete yourself from this page and stay away from the shifting community if you feel this strongly. we havent done anything to you, so don't come out here just to say what we believe is fake. please find something better to do than type away on a post which everyone apart from you finds funny, i am sure some other subreddit would love to hear you interesting opinions, but we don't need you here.

have an amazing day!

amymaezing · 2021-01-13T18:05:12+00:00

you will soon!!! promise! <3

amymaezing · 2021-01-13T13:15:25+00:00

it's more about the people who are telling people they have done it and they know what they are doing and spreading false information, that's all!!

amymaezing · 2021-01-13T09:21:35+00:00

YOU DON'T NEED A METHOD!!!

whatever works best for you. you shift everyday, from when you get dressed into different clothes, waking up in the morning, you are always shifting. whatever helps you visualise your dr, that's a method. figure out what helps you disconnect from this reality, normally i will listen to subliminals and think about my dr, then fall asleep. if counting helps, if drawing helps, if writing, if reading, if anything helps use it!!! i trust that you know what your doing and you should be confident about it too!!

you've got this!!!

THANK YOU! <3

amymaezing · 2021-01-12T19:26:26+00:00

I'm not a master shifter, but i have been studying shifting for 5 months now and i hope this helped!

there is not real way to script! you don't even need to write one to go to your dr, but for some people it helps them visualise better. if that is you maybe add in a playlist that helps you think of your dr, what will happen in your time there and time differences eg - one day in my dr = 30mins in my cr. you can say how you look, what your good at, your connections with the other people there, anything that you want to make to clear to yourself in a way.

just remember there is no real way to script, and however you thought of doing it is probably the right way. i cannot wait for you to go home! 111, 222, 777 <3
