I am looking into purchasing softplan. Can you upload a photo and set it to a scale (according to a window/door) and trace over for quick design sketches ?

Are you asking if we can upload an image of a plan then trace over it for the floorplan? The answer is yes, but I don't know of an auto scale function like you described. I have done this in the past by having a line drawn that is the same length as a feature on the drawing, then adjusted the image to match that length (proportion of the image are maintained). It's not super fast, but effective. I have also cropped a plan to the edge of the walls then modified the entire width to reflect the total width needed.
I have used this for plans and sites both. I use it much more for site plans.

Thanks for the reply. I was thinking more like taking an exterior photo, setting it to a scale and doing a quick renovation. i.e. A quick addition, adding trim, changing siding etc. to give a client a look at the potential curb appeal with minimal investment.
