Frequently Asked Questions
Ready Projects & Workflow Actions
What does the "Ready" tag mean for a Qbiq project?
When Qbiq completes processing a project, its status changes from "Processing" to "Ready." This indicates that all floor plan alternatives and visualizations are finalized and available for review and download. Note: Projects must be fully processed before receiving the "Ready" tag.
What actions can I take on a Ready Project?
For Ready Projects, you can:
- Click the project card to view Summary and Project Details.
- Submit a Redline request for minor modifications to floor plans or renderings.
- Access Downloads to retrieve completed materials and files.
- Play a Virtual Tour in a new browser tab.
- Duplicate the project to create a copy for further editing or reuse.
Note: Some actions may differ between Property Marketing Projects and Independent Projects.
How do I edit project details in Property Marketing Projects versus Independent Projects?
In Property Marketing Projects, the Property Name, Address, and Image fields are read-only in the "Edit" menu but can be changed by editing the related Space. In Independent Projects, these fields are editable directly within the project section. Note: Editing options depend on project type; consult the Help Center for specifics.
What is the Redline feature and how do I use it?
The Redline feature allows you to request minor modifications to your floor plan or Rendering Suite after a project is marked as Ready. Access it from the left menu or quick actions. For detailed instructions, see Using the Redline Feature. Note: Redline is intended for minor changes only.
How do I download completed project files?
Use the Downloads option in the left menu or quick actions to retrieve all completed materials and files for your Ready Project. For more details, see Downloads. Note: Download availability depends on project completion status.
How do I duplicate a Ready Project?
Click the Duplicate option in the quick actions menu to create a copy of your completed project. This allows you to reuse layouts or visualizations for new projects. Note: Duplicated projects retain original settings but can be edited further.
How can I view a virtual tour of my Ready Project?
Select the Virtual Tour option in the quick actions menu to play a photorealistic tour of your completed project in a new browser tab. Note: Virtual tours are available only for projects with completed visualizations.
