<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 dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

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

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

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.
