Editing and Managing Objects

Use Select mode, the popup editor, the selected object panel, and the object list to manage everything on the site plan.

Selected object panel and object list side panel

Select mode

Choose Select to click existing objects on the map. Select mode can interact with:

  • Deterrents.
  • Indicators.
  • References.
  • Greenspaces.
  • Buildings.
  • The heatmap legend.

Click an object to open a nearby popup editor. The popup provides quick edits without leaving the canvas.

Object popup editor next to a selected item

Popup actions commonly include:

  • Rename the object.
  • Change object-specific settings.
  • Delete the selected object.
  • Save changes.

Selected Object panel

The right-side Selected Object panel mirrors many popup controls and is useful for precise editing.

Editable object settings include:

  • Deterrent name, type, custom power, sensitivity, power source, AC voltage, volume, and attractant role.
  • Indicator maximum-noise enforcement and SPL limit.
  • Greenspace label and deter-from setting.
  • Building name and attenuation.
  • Reference deletion.

Objects panel

The Objects panel lists placed objects and provides Select buttons. Use this when objects overlap or when it is easier to select by name.

Dragging objects

In Select mode, you can drag:

  • Deterrents.
  • Indicators.
  • References.
  • The heatmap legend.

Buildings and greenspaces are selected and edited through their properties; redraw them if the outline needs major changes.

Deleting objects

Deletion options:

  • Select an object and click Delete in the popup or side panel.
  • Select an object and press Delete or Backspace.
  • Use Clear References to remove all references.
  • Use Clear Map to remove the background image only.

Status bar feedback

The status bar below the map reports mode changes, drawing instructions, movement, successful updates, copy-link results, and recommendation messages.
