Adding Home Theater Components

Creating and customizing your home theater couldn’t be easier. There is an entire set of tools available to add audio and video components to your design, with just a couple of mouse clicks. These components have default elevations and orientations. For example, the Video Projector button attaches the video projector to the ceiling. The home theater components are displayed with dimensions, as you drag along a wall or move the cursor around the design window, which indicate the distance from the center of the component to the nearest wall or other components in the design. You can reposition any of the home theater components using basic editing techniques.
