Naming Layers in Morpholio Trace: It’s Finally Here!
I just found out you can expand the layer palette with this little arrow, so it’s super easy to rename and organize your layers now—something I’ve been wanting forever. I also heard there’s a big update coming later this year that’ll let you group layers into folders (like in Procreate), among other things, like a big revamp to adding text. Ask @Joey Swerdlin (director at Morpholio) if you are curious.

@Joey Swerdlin THIS IS AWESOME! Thank you!
How to space plan a room with Morpholio Trace?
This week, I created a brief tutorial to help @Emma Hurlston Tseng on space planning using two PDFs at different scales. It shows how to integrate a 1:40 furniture PDF into a 1:50 room plan. This workflow can be applied to various scenarios once you grasp the basic concept. #How to space plan a room with furniture template?

Super helpful, Henry. Thanks!
Another project to share
I’m still searching for my particular style and I find emulating other’s work to be helpful. This project is for a new space off the back of an existing house. I used Sketchup to make a fairly robust model of the proposal and integrated it into the existing with photomatch. I’ve always found interior rendering from 3D models to be time consuming. This iPad methodology really is a game changer. These were early iterations that were meant to capture the overall concept without getting mired in the details.

Nice work, Jeff!
The Layers!
Morpholio Trace - Is there a way to see layer names, other than clicking on them?

@Mike DeBonis Kind of makes me want to use less layers .... counterproductive.

I have been naming my layers. I just can't remember which layer is which, so I hunt and peck a lot. It would be really nice if the layer names could be seen while sketching somehow.
iPad Surface Questions
I believe Henry mentioned a film to put on the iPad screen to add a little bit of texture or grit. My iPencil is kind of sloppy and slippery on the glass screen. Any thoughts or insight? Also, as a throwback to my older days, when I put my hand on the screen to draw I feel like I'm going to be adding inadvertent marks other than from iPencil. Any thoughts or insight here as well? Thanks in advance...

@Henry Gao Hi Henry. Thanks for the tip, I had not heard of them. I just ordered their product. We'll see how it goes. Thanks a lot! I'll report back soon.

@Henry Gao Hi Henry. I just received my iPad 13" screen protector from ESR. It comes with a plastic tray to help with installation, two protectors, and cleaning kits for $16.99 from Amazon. I tried to review the installation video, but the link was broken. However, it installs just like the other kits I have used. The "bubble chaser" in this kit is the best I have used (I have tried KCT and GhostPaper as well, long story.) The protector went on like a dream, with no bubbles or trapped lint. This is likely because I understand what to look for now. As to the feel of the surface, I like it. I think I will be really happy with this protector. Thanks for the recommendation.
