How to read the visual
The labelled spans and stored measurements determine the scale; unmeasured illustration details do not.
- Double bed is labelled example; treat the displayed value as a comparison anchor rather than false precision.
- King-size bed is labelled example; treat the displayed value as a comparison anchor rather than false precision.
