The two-dimensional views which can also be requested may be drawn from either side of the container, or may provide you with a floor footprint such as that shown below:

In addition summary information is available as the load display is being built up which details the cargo loaded so far:

During the process of drawing the load it may have become clear that additional cargo could be fitted. One option then available is to 'Add' further cargo to the load so as to make good use of any remaining spaces.

A further option at this stage is to 'Level' the cargo now loaded. Whilst the loading pattern initially produced may spread the load out fairly well over the container floor, the packing process does assume that space adjacent to the container door might be used for extra cargo. The 'Level' option quickly and easily spreads the load still further to help provide a loading pattern which is stable in transit.
