Unplacing Spaces

You unplace a space when you want to remove it from its current location in the building model. The space becomes unplaced and all space information is retained allowing you to place the unplaced space in another location later in the design process. The space information includes that which you defined in the space properties, such as space type, people, and design heating and cooling loads.

Tip: You can also see space information in a space schedule.

To unplace a space

  1. Open a floor plan view that displays the space.
  2. Select the space.

    Check the status bar to be sure that you have selected the space and not the space tag.

  3. Delete the space from the plan view using any of the following methods:
    • Press DELETE or CTRL+X.
    • Right-click the space, and click Delete.
    • Click Modify Spaces tabModify panelDelete.

    The space is removed from its location in the building model. It no longer displays in the view. However, the project still contains the information about the space. If desired, you can place the space in another location.

    Note: In a space schedule, the unplaced space is listed as Not Placed.
