Present Mode Canvas and Sheets

What's in this post?

Design isn’t just about what you create, it’s about how you present it. And now, with Present Mode, you can document, share, and collaborate on your designs without ever leaving Snaptrude.

What’s New

Present Mode Canvas and Sheets

Present Mode is your new documentation workspace inside Snaptrude — a hybrid between a whiteboard, a drawing set, and a live presentation tool.

Here’s what it unlocks:

  • Canvas View: A blank, infinite board where you can drop views, images, PDFs, notes, and AI-generated content. Think of it like FigJam, but wired directly to your model.
  • Sheets: Switch to structured drawing sets with title blocks and scaled views. Every view stays live and updatable — no more exporting images just to update a dimension.
  • Connected Data: Every floor plan, 3D view, area chart, or section you place is linked to the model. Update your design and the sheet can be refreshed with one click.
  • Share & Collaborate: Share a link for clients or team members to review. They can annotate, comment, or approve — even on a tablet with a stylus. No extra software needed.

Why It Matters

Architects have long had to juggle tools for ideation, presentation, and documentation- Miro, PowerPoint, InDesign, PDFs... Present Mode ends that fragmentation.

It keeps your story and your data in one place:

  • Iterate faster with feedback in context
  • Avoid version mismatches between sheets and models
  • Share high-quality outputs without switching tools

Where to Find It

Click the “Present” button on the main Snaptrude toolbar to launch.

Inside Present Mode, you’ll see:

  • A canvas for brainstorming and quick layouts
  • A sheet builder for precise documentation
  • Toolbars for annotations, label styling, and exports
  • A Views panel to drag in saved perspectives, plans, elevations
  • Export and share tools for smooth collaboration

This is just the start. Present Mode is our foundation for building a full ecosystem that supports you from early concepts to final delivery, without ever leaving Snaptrude.

We can’t wait to see what you create with it.
