How to Use the Baguame Calculators
Each Feng Shui tool in Baguame has two screens: a hub page that introduces the tool, and a calculator that shows it on your plan.
Hub page
To open a hub, click a tool under Feng Shui Tools in the sidebar. Most hubs work before you upload a plan, and contain:
- An interactive preview of the tool
- A live preview on your own plan, with a button to open the full view
- Feng Shui Tool Description, which explains what the calculator shows
Calculator
To open a calculator, do one of the following:
- On the hub page, click the button on your building's preview.
- On the building page, select a tool, and then open its full view.
The calculator shows the tool's grid or compass over your plan, with your rooms, elements, and people.
Read a sector
- Tap a sector on the plan.
- Read the sector card and the Description tab in the side panel.
Ask the AI assistant
Click the AI Assistant tab, and then type your question. For details, see AI assistant and sector analysis.
Change the display
Open the display settings of the calculator to change what appears on the plan. Options vary by calculator:
- Sector names and ratings
- The size and opacity of the grid or compass
- Which layers of stars or compass rings appear
- Plan layers: rooms, elements, and people
Focus on one room
Use the room selector to center the view on one room. To use it, add the room first.
Switch building or person
Use the switcher at the top of the calculator to view another building. In Eight Mansions, you can also switch to another person.
Locked features
Some features can be locked, depending on your account. A locked control shows what is needed to open it.
