Create a seating chart layout. After you create the layout, you

to seats. To modify the chart, see the section "Edit
Seating Chart Layout."

The rows and columns create a grid for the seating chart layout. For example, a grid with 3 rows and 6 columns creates an 18-seat chart.
Note: You can have more seats than students, but you cannot have more students than seats. |
| Columns |
Enter the number of columns to create on the seating chart.

- Click OK. The seating chart layout appears.
Note: Set the width and height of each seat to fit the number of seats in the classroom. The capacity of the classroom is determined by the ability to fit the seating chart onto a standard, 8.5- by 11-inch piece of paper. If your seating chart exceeds the space available, an error message appears.
Note: If there are more students currently enrolled
than will fit on the current seating chart layout, an error
message appears.
The number of seats must equal or exceed the number of enrolled
students. Increase the number of rows or columns.
