Usage
The Blueprints App is very intuitive, and was designed according to the iPhoneTM‘s User Interface guidelines. The App starts in the Blueprints screen. There you can add a blueprint. Each blueprint contains a number of pictures of what you’re measuring. Tapping a picture in the pictures screen, shows the measurements screen. In the measurements screen you can add, delete, edit, and move measurements, as well as panning and zooming the picture.
