Learn the QiVector workflow from floor plan alignment to overlay analysis.
Follow these practical walkthroughs to prepare a property, establish an accurate magnetic north reading, and generate the charts used in classical Feng Shui diagnostics.
Video 1: Using the wizard to create a floor plan
Using the wizard to create a floor plan
In this step-by-step tutorial, we walk you through the foundational feature of our platform: the Floor Plan Wizard. For professional Feng Shui practitioners, getting an accurate compass reading is the most critical part of any audit. Watch how QiVector automates this complex process in five simple steps.
In this video, we cover
Steps 1 & 2 (Image & Crop)
How to select an existing floor plan from your Project Assets and crop it to the working area.
Step 3 (Boundary)
Watch how to use the interactive canvas to draw the exact boundary of the usable space. We highlight the "Snap points (horizontal/vertical)" feature, which allows you to quickly create perfectly straight, orthogonal lines over your client's blueprints.
Step 4 (Orientation)
Learn how to select specific boundary edges to define the entrance, facing, and sitting directions of the property.
Step 5 (Align North & Map Tool)
See our most powerful geomathematical tool in action. We demonstrate how to open the satellite map tool, drop pins on the physical building, and align your 2D floor plan with Google Maps.
The QiVector Advantage
Notice how the software doesn't just use True North. By inputting the property's built year, QiVector automatically calculates the historical magnetic declination for that specific location, giving you a mathematically perfect Magnetic North reading to base your charts on.
Video 2: Using the overlay tool to analyse Feng Shui charts
Using the overlay tool to analyse Feng Shui charts
Once your floor plan is perfectly aligned using our Wizard, it is time to dive into the spatial diagnostics. In this video, we explore the highly customizable "Overlay Controls" dashboard within QiVector, designed to support multiple schools of classical Feng Shui.
In this video, we cover
The Dashboard
How to navigate the Overlay Controls, adjust the overlay scale, and use the "Auto-fit to boundary" feature to perfectly superimpose your charts.
Multiple Metaphysical Views
Watch as we seamlessly toggle the "Primary Overlay" dropdown menu to switch between different analytical lenses, including Bagua (Black Hat), Annual Afflictions, Eight Mansions (House and Life Gua), and Xuan Kong Flying Stars.
Grid vs. Radial Layouts
Learn how to switch between standard 9-grid layouts and exact degree-based radial pie charts depending on your preferred working style.
Deep Dive into Flying Stars
See how QiVector instantly calculates and displays the Base, Mountain, and Water stars for the Natal chart. We also demonstrate how to layer in the Time-based systems (Yearly and Monthly stars) to forecast dynamic energy shifts over time.
Visualizing the Elements
Discover how to toggle on "Sector colours" and "Five element cycles" to instantly spot clashes, productive cycles, and exhaustive relationships between the stars in any given sector.
