Centered: the field is balanced on the room-width centerline, so the cut tiles at each end of the base course are equal. "Tile" puts a whole tile on center; "Joint" puts a grout line on center.
02 Alcove Walls left \u00b7 back \u00b7 right
A shower alcove: the Back wall is the main span; the Left and Right walls are the returns, so their "width" is the alcove depth. Each wall lays out and centers independently, then Married unfolds them and 3D wraps them into the alcove.

In Single Wall view turn on Edit Grid. Step columns/rows, drag any gold line to fine-tune, then tap a box for Delete or Accent (the little readout is draggable). Each box is its own independent rectangle. With Carry on, any detail band on the Back wall automatically wraps onto the Left and Right walls at the same height (full width). Delete/remove boxes do not carry. Result shows in Layout, Married and 3D.

Wall Area (ft\u00b2)
Cement backer board for the wall substrate. Sheets = tiled wall area \u00f7 sheet area, rounded up (no waste factor). Removed boxes are excluded; detail boxes still need substrate.

Products and prices are typical retail items shown as editable defaults — I can't read live, store-specific stock or pricing. Verify availability and current price with your supplier before ordering. Quantities are driven by the take-off above (tiled area, thinset lb, grout lb); tile includes the waste factor. Adhesive/grout coverage depends on tile size, notch and joint — confirm bag coverage on the label.
