Features ​

Blue Vellum provides a complete set of tools for designing warehouse storage layouts. This section covers all the major features in detail.

Core Features ​

Drawing Tools ​

The toolbar and every canvas tool: Select, Pan, Draw, Add Point, Measure, Select Rack, Door, and Orbit -- what each does, its shortcut, and when to reach for it.

Areas & the Building ​

The area menu (names, colors, layers, display options), the building's own controls, the column grid, and obstructions.

Rack Layout Options ​

Every setting in a rack area's storage flyout: aisle width, orientation, alignment, depth modes, tunnels, and the solver toggles.

Elevations & Levels ​

The side view of your rack: elevation views, the elevation menu, working with levels, auto-fill, and the height rules.

Views & Navigation ​

How the plan, elevation, and 3D views relate, plus getting around the canvas.
