- Above the map, you can:
- Designate your drawing (select from the list or type your own)
- Change the color of drawings

- On the top left, inside the map, is a row of 5 icons. Here you can select a drawing tool. The options are:
- Blank (used for moving around)
- Marker (only captures a count of items, good for counting trees, shrubs, etc.)
- Rectangle (only draws in a rectangle)
- Circle (only draws in a circle)
- Polygon (can be used to draw any shape)
- On the bottom, inside the map, are 4 buttons. These are:
- Save (saves the current drawings)
- Cancel (cancels all unsaved drawings)
- Reset (deletes the saved drawings and cancels all unsaved drawings)
- Convert (only appears after drawings have been saved; converts Rectangles and Circles to Polygons so they can be adjusted as needed)
- All drawings can be edited after saving.
- You can click and hold to move drawings around.
- You can also delete an individual drawing by right-clicking on it.
- You can modify Rectangles, Circles, and Polygons using the white circles on the edges of the drawing.
- Polygons have an additional circle between each white circle. You can use this to add new points to the polygon.
- The Combined Map button shows a map that contains all drawings for this estimate.
