- 2D for plan work, with a graphic scale bar; 3D orthographic or perspective.
- Walkthrough: eye-level navigation through the plan.
- Exploded view separates levels vertically with an adjustable explode factor. Great for multi-level diagrams.
Export
From Main menu → Export:
- View: export in 2D or 3D
- Paper size and margins (none to 1"/25mm)
- Drawing scale: fixed architectural scales, full scale, or custom scales you define and save
- Tag size controls (auto-size, fixed sizes, or hidden) and soft shading
- Multi-export: all levels, all options, or both in one PDF
- Sheets and title blocks: lay out drawings on sheets with a template (classic Title Block, Simple footer, or No layout) or upload your own custom title block to match firm standards. Note: switching the project between imperial and metric also changes which sheet sizes are offered.
- Multipage title block PDFs: if the PDF you upload has more than one page, a Choose a page dialog shows a thumbnail of each page. Pick the page that holds your title block and click Use page N. Cancel to stop the upload. A one-page PDF skips this step.
- Custom title blocks. Choose Add template/title block and upload a PDF. The block's page size sets the size of the whole document, so paper size, orientation, and margins are locked while any page uses a custom title block. If you apply a block that is a different size from one already in use, Hypar asks you to confirm: continuing resizes the document and clears the title block from any other page that has one. To remove a custom title block, choose Delete title block; pages that used it go back to no layout.
In PDF export mode you can pan and fine-tune the view before exporting. Click a title block's text or image field to add project text or a logo. Your edits are saved, so you won't redo them each export.
Tip: Set your label tag size to zero in the right hand PDF export panel to completely remove your space labels
Lines and arrows you have drawn come through in both PDF and image export, styled as you drew them.

CAD (DXF, DWG)
Export to CAD (💎 paid feature) produces 2D CAD drawings of your plan — choose DXF or DWG. Furniture, equipment, and flexible components are included as 2D footprints.
Revit and Rhino
