How to Remove Excess Points or Segments from a Room

Multiple points might end up being placed along a straight line, or a line that you intended to be straight, is a little bit off and has excess segments. Removing these segments will improve the geometry of the room. This minimizes the risk of error messages when apply product to a room or when Measure performs allocation.

Removing a Single Point

Points can be removed by right-clicking it and selecting Delete Point.
