Set Planner is a professional tool for film and TV set design. Build floor plans quickly, communicate your vision to the crew, and export to JPEG or PDF in seconds. Cameras Place cameras with customizable lens angle, focal length, and field of view. Name each camera and link a label that moves with it. Lock proportions or enable free resize per element. Actors & Equipment Add actors, monitors, keyboards, and custom library items to your plan. Choose which elements can be resized and which stay fixed — per object. Rigs Place JIB Crane, Dolly, Rails, and Drone rigs with labeled dimensions. JIB and Rail support height-only resize by default; width resize can be unlocked separately. Architecture Draw walls freehand and snap doors and windows directly onto them. Walls, doors, and windows maintain correct proportions when scaled.

Precision Controls Enter Width and Height numerically for geometric shapes Adjust arrow head length (10–50 pt) per element Set curve simplification distance before applying Snap to grid with configurable grid size Group, lock, and reorder elements freely Export Save your plan as a native .splan project file, export to JPEG for sharing, or generate a multi-page PDF ready for print.
