How can I Use Canibuild on a Tablet or iPad

This article will show you how most of Canibuild’s features work when using a tablet or iPad with a touch screen.

Many of the core functions in Canibuild are designed to work smoothly on touch screen devices. For the best experience, we recommend using a Bluetooth mouse, which can enhance navigation, accuracy, and usability.

What Works on a Touch Screen

  • All on-screen buttons and menus are fully touch-responsive.

  • Easily search for addresses using the search bar.

  • Use pinch and swipe gestures to zoom and navigate around the map.

  • Move and rotate designs using touch-based drag actions.

  • Generate documents such as site plans and flyers using the usual on-screen workflow.

  • Drawing tools can be used via the Action Box for added assistance.


While the drawing tools can be used with assistance from the action box, using a mouse will significantly enhance precision and accuracy.
