Use your mouse scroll wheel to zoom in and out of the floorplan:

Roll your scroll wheel forwards to zoom in and make the plan appear larger
Roll your scroll wheel backwards to zoom out and make the plan appear smaller
Whilst zoomed in or out, you can again hold down your left mouse button to pan/move the floor plan around your workspace

To get the most from the Futuresource event planner, simply use the pull-down lists in the Dashboard to browse by product category or exhibitor name (a). Your results will be displayed in yellow on the floorplan.

If more than one exhibitor matches your chosen product category you can switch between them using the arrow buttons (< >).

You can view an exhibitor's company profile from within the Dashboard by clicking the "Profile" button.

You can add your selection(s) to your personalised event plan use the "Add to Planner" buttons in the Dashboard. Exhibitor stands added to your event plan will change to green and a key number will appear (b).

To print your event plan simply click on the The 'Print' button icon(found at the bottom of the dashboard). Your printing options will then be displayed. Tick the items you want included in your print-out and then select 'Ok'. At this point your standard print dialog will be shown. Different operating systems vary but in most cases it's fine to just leave the original settings. Finally select "Print" to complete the task.

You can return to the London ExCeL site plan at anytime by clicking the "Go back to ExCeL site plan" link (you'll be prompted save your selections first).
