Glossary

Seating Chart: A visual diagram that shows where each participant sits in a meeting room, classroom, or event venue. This tool lets you create one intuitively by dragging and dropping desks.
Layout Template: A preset arrangement of desks for common configurations like classrooms, U-shape meetings, or round tables. Templates let you get started quickly without arranging each desk from scratch.
Drag & Drop: A UI interaction method where you click (or touch) an element and drag it to a new position. In this tool, you drag desk objects directly to where you want them on the canvas.
Random Shuffle: A feature that randomly reassigns the names across all seats. This prevents fixed seating patterns and ensures a fair, unbiased seat change for everyone.
Canvas Rendering: An image rendering technique using the browser's HTML5 Canvas API. This tool uses it to draw the seating layout and export it as a high-quality image file.
PNG Export: The feature to download the current seating layout as a PNG image file. Ideal for printing or sharing via messaging apps like Slack.
Grid Layout: An arrangement style where desks are placed in rows and columns like a grid. It is the most common seating pattern used in classrooms and standard office configurations.
