Common questions

Classroom seating charts

Can DeskDraft handle an irregular classroom?

Yes. Start with a rectangular grid, then deactivate desks to preserve aisles, doors, equipment zones, or missing furniture.

Can I move students after generating a chart?

Yes. Click two desks or drag one student onto another desk to swap placements. Pinned placements can survive the next generation.

What can I customize before printing?

Choose US Letter or A4, portrait or landscape, color or grayscale, desk scale, title, subtitle, footer note, teaching wall, coordinates, legend, and date.

Where is the roster stored?
