How do I get the best results when snapping a photo in IKEA Kreativ?
Taking a good photo of your room in IKEA Kreativ makes everything easier. Here are a few tips to get started:
Position
Stand with your back against a wall or corner, facing the area you want to design. Make sure the floor is visible in the frame. It works even better when you can capture some of the ceiling in your photo as well.
Lighting
Open the blinds and turn on any lights. A bright, well-lit room produces a much better image.
Framing
Point the camera toward the center of the area you want to design and shoot in landscape (horizontal) orientation.
Review before continuing
Check the preview and make sure it covers the full area and looks bright and clear before tapping Yes to continue.
