#982 Use of symbols in 2D view

[ikarias]

Hi there,

it would be great if it was possible to assign objects a property that lets them be displayed in a symbolic way, much like you introduced for doors/windows.
For example, if I insert an electric plug, it looks nice in the 3D model, but is not really visible of distinguishable from other objects in the 2D view.
Giving the option of 2D symbols via png import would greatly enhance the 2D planning capabilities here.

Many thanks for investigating what could be possible!

It's already possible through the use of Furniture Libraries.
See this subject in the forum and the nice libraries designed by Dorin.
