Thank you so much! This is amazing!

[@Vanderloo5]

I'm lovin this! Thanks Henry.

[@HenryGao]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@beto008]

nice workaround. i wish procreate makes this simpler

[@prepostgamer305]

Really great video! I’m planning on purchasing an iPad for my final year of study

[@HenryGao]

Awesome 🤩

[@midsoulmusic]

Love this so much!!!! Thank you. You probably get asked this a lot, but what are your iPad specs

[@HenryGao]

12.9" iPad Pro 3rd gen with 2nd Gen apple pencil.

[@curtispetty1723]

Hello! Your template shows a white margin without the grid extending beyond it. How did you do that? The drawing guide extends the grid to the page edge.

[@FIFA10EA]

Hi Henry, I just downloaded you procreate template. These are super helful, One key missing scale from your drawing would be the 10 scale. Not sure if this is something you would be willing to update on your part, Aside from that, thank you for your help with these!

[@HenryGao]

What do you mean by the 10 scale?

[@FIFA10EA]

@@HenryGao Hi Henry, Thank you for response In AutoCAD you can typically set you scale to "10 Scale" which means 1"=10'-0". I feel like a ton of architects and designers use that scale for their drawings.

[@GerryJ08]

Did you use a simple paper and pencil on graph paper to create the as built plans from the start?

[@HenryGao]

No, the as-built was already provided. I have done the measuring myself in the past, not my favorite

[@tomoldinho]

Henry, can’t you draw to scale by setting the dimensions of the drawing assist and then adjusting the size of the imported plan accordingly? Just curious, that’s what I’ve been doing and it seems to work.

[@HenryGao]

Can you save to scale and print to scale?

[@tomoldinho]

@@HenryGao It saves to scale and transfers digitally okay. Haven’t tried printing!

[@mory1265]

I really needed 1:100 grids and the email I got only gave my 1:50. A bit frustrated after watching an hour long seminar for this.

[@masterdave73]

I used Concepts so far and wanted to explore the technical side of Procreate, as an architect, importing a plan and start sketching on it, in SCALE. Why is it so cumbersome and overcomplicated? Why I cannot set a gridline with 1 unit = another unit (i.e. 1 cm=1m) > BAM! Too complicated for an app giant like procreate or I missed something?

[@HenryGao]

I share the same sentimental! Hope Procreate team can step up for Architects and Interior Designers in the future.

[@Vanderloo5]

I'm not getting any links to download your templates? I fill out sign up and download, takes me to a page to register for your webinar.

[@HenryGao]

Please check your spam for download!

[@Caffeinatedbro]

Hi, On your website it says you can get free scale templates if i go through a webinar, but all i got at the end was a pdf though which i could download the case study files. Is it just a click bait or are they actually available for free?

[@HenryGao]

Make sure to check your spam folder. Hopefully you got it by now.

[@katemortimer9051]

what if you do your scales in metrics what re the equivalent scales to the imperial scales?

[@HenryGao]

My templates support both metric and imperial.

[@jhanvipatel7313]

Hey, I tried to download the templates from the website and also watched the 60 mins video. I still can't download the file can you tell me how to download it.

[@HenryGao]

Have you checked your inbox because it is instantly delivered there once you’ve signed up for the template. Make sure to check your spam folder.

[@jemiliob1]

How to import a file if you don't have PhotShop?

[@HenryGao]

You can manually resize in procreate as best as you can

[@Transcriptor]

Just take a photo or screenshot.

[@dawngepfert2636]

You can export a PDF as an image and choose btw JPG, PING etc..
