Room Layout Guide
This page matches the “add key details” part of the wizard: fill level, room types, bed direction, front door, and home orientation (rotation + north offset).
1) Fill level (Full / Extended / Partial)
On the Fill level step, tap a palace (including any convex add‑on cells) to cycle:
Full → Extended → Partial → Full
What each one means:
- Full: your home fills that cell normally.
- Partial: the cell exists, but it’s not fully covered (cut corner, open balcony/terrace, void, etc.). This is the main way to tell the system “this side may be missing”.
- Extended: this side sticks out beyond the main outline (a small bump / bay window / extra slab). This nudges the analysis to treat it as a protrusion instead of a missing corner.
Notes:
- The center and convex cells don’t have the Extended option.
- If you don’t tap a cell, it’s treated as Full by default—so only change the ones that aren’t.
2) Mark room types
The report mainly cares about Kitchen / Bathroom / Bedroom. Everything else can be left as None.
- Kitchen → treated as Fire
- Bathroom → treated as Water
- Bedroom → used for bed‑direction checks
There are also combined options:
- Bedroom + Bathroom: treated as Bathroom (bed direction is ignored)
- Kitchen + Bathroom: counts as both (may trigger water–fire conflict notes)
If a room spans multiple palaces, mark the one where the “core” sits:
- kitchen: stove / main cooking area
- bathroom: toilet / main bath
- bedroom: the bed
3) Bed direction (only for “Bedroom”)
On the Bed direction step, tap a bedroom cell to rotate the headboard 90°:
Up → Right → Down → Left
Don’t worry about “true north” here—just set the bed direction based on how it sits in your plan. When you rotate the grid later, the bed direction rotates with it.
Because the 3×3 grid is an approximation, spatial relationships are usually phrased as “possible” and should be verified against the real floor plan.
4) Front door (optional, but helpful)
If you know where the front door is, tap the palace to place it. Tap the same spot again to cycle the door’s facing:
Up → Right → Down → Left
Not sure? Skip it—your report still works.
If you place the door on a convex add‑on cell, the analysis maps it to the nearest main palace (the UI will still highlight the convex position so you can double‑check).
5) Home orientation (rotation + north offset)
- Rotate the grid so the top equals your home’s north.
- If needed, apply a north offset (NW / N / NE) for a 45° adjustment.
This affects which Bagua (Qian/Kan/Gen/…) is assigned to each palace, so align it with a compass when possible.
