  • System and method for displaying and manipulating a floor layout display on a computer
    Patent number: 10002453
    Abstract: A graphic display on a computer system with a floor layout having a canvas layer and an overlay layer. The canvas layer has tile graphics laid out in a grid, the tile graphics representing portions of the floor. The overlay layer has overlay containers corresponding to the tile graphics, the overlay layer having overlay zones and overlay graphics. Overlay functions associated with overlay zones in an overlay container manipulate the tile graphic associated with the overlay container. The overlay graphics of each overlay container are transparent until a hover event occurs over the associated overlay container. A tile pallet illustrates the tile graphics in the canvas layer of the floor layout. A tool layout display includes indicia associated with various functions that can manipulate the tile graphics in the flooring layout. A perspective flooring layout is displayed in a transparent window of an environmental mask with a perspective room design.
