<h2 align="center">The Scan view</h2>

To see the wall areas and dimensions in the Scan:&#x20;

1. **Click on the dot in the center of the walls whose area you want to know** (you can select the interior or exterior façades).&#x20;
2. The wall dimensions appear directly on the walls
3. The total area calculation is visible in "**Selected area**" and each selected wall is added to it
4. To exclude openings from the area calculation, uncheck "**Count openings**"
5. To include your sloped ceilings, check "Enable sloped-ceiling import" and "Re-import" (if you have already imported your plan)

<h2 align="center">Re-import the Scan</h2>

{% hint style="danger" %}
If you forgot to import the sloping sections when finalizing the Scan, you will need to **re-import the scan** : this action causes the **complete removal of all previously made changes** On the plan. **You won't be able to go back**.\
\
If you have already modified your plan and do not want to re-import it, you can draw the slopes. Click [**here**](/guide-visuary-en/the-plan/ceilings.md#creer-un-plafond-rampant) to learn more.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://help.visuary.com/guide-visuary-en/scan/capture-view.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
