This is certainly true. Typing that I heard his voice in my head, and laughed. I'm sure someone who's never heard Steven Wright has a much more limited response.
There is https://floorplanner.com
They are used in a variety of situations and have been doing this for over 15 years. Floorplanner is used in high end shops to show arrangements of furniture, on website to showcase apartments etc. that are for sale and a lot of different use cases.
What is the use case of Roometron that you see it does best?
I have not seen any of nice looking 3D apartment viewer yet,
most of the companies offer users to draw apartments yourself and furnish it, thats mostly not considered as a user friendly experience and then they ask to render your work into an image, there are no real 3D to play with.
Because this, and more very strange rules it is very hard for ticketing systems to get into the Italian market.
Some examples:
- not allowed to change to time or name of the event after the 1st ticket is sold
- only allowed section names in halls from a know list
- free tickets on events... can only do this under strange conditions
- smart card application, for encryption, must run on a physical server in Italy. You should not be able to log into the ticketing box office if that smart card application is not running.
Totally agree.
And how does it work when you measure a thing and it is 1,35 inch do you in the US convert it to fractions? And how then do you find this fraction?
A ruler sold in the US (and Britain, on the reverse/bottom) has inch markings with fractions.
│.╷.|.╷.│.╷.|.╷.│.╷.|.╷.│.╷.|.╷.│
0⅛¼⅜½⅝¾⅞1
So the measurement, when taken, is 1⅜".
I've seen inch rulers with different fractions, e.g. one end might be eights, the other sixteenths, turn it over and there are tenths.
(I don't know how this works with digital measuring devices — I grew up in Britain so have never used inches professionally. Only in Warhammer and TV screens.)
With digital devices I assume there is a mode switch like in the digital scales I have at home in the US. I actually work in grams for things like bread making which seems easier than a combination of pounds and ounces.

In Italy there are competing fast trains on the same track, all with a red color. With people on the station selling tickets to only one of them. ... So I asked them for the first train from Vincenza to Milan at 13:30... That is 14:44...I bought the 14:44 ticket from "Italo". Then found out there was a "Trenitalia" at 14:04! ...
Sorry mister.. this was OUR first train..not THE first train.
The icons being tiny pictures of the actual trains is cute, but makes the map quite confusing to look at!
Edit: I just noticed that the marker style changes if I choose something other than "Equipment" from the map style dropdown, selecting "driving/stationary" certainly makes it a lot more readable.
