### Create a New Proposal from a Design
#### Turn a finished Scanifly design into a new proposal by picking your design, your images, and a name.
Once your design work is done, this is the short form that starts a proposal. Six steps, and you are in the editor.
---
##### 1. Select the Project
Choose the project you want to build the proposal for. If you came into the Proposal Tool from a project page, this is usually already filled in for you.

##### 2. Select the Design
Pick the design you want to use. Any remote or on-site design in the project is eligible.

##### 3. Confirm the Design Image
The design image defaults to the project's design image, which auto-updates as the design changes. Leave it as is, or pick a different image.

##### 4. Add Supporting Images
Your drone images and other site images appear below the design image. Only a subset shows at first, so expand the list to see all of them. You can select up to 4 additional images beyond the design image, for 5 total. These fill the Additional Images page of the proposal.

##### 5. Change Which Image Is the Design Image
Click the star control on any image to make it the design image instead.

##### 6. Name the Proposal and Create It
The name is prefilled with the project name plus the system size plus the date. Edit it to whatever you want, then click **Create Proposal**. You land in the editor.

📘 **Pro Tip:**
Because the design image auto-updates, you don't need to regenerate a proposal after minor design tweaks.

**Needs clarification:**
- None. The 5-image total was confirmed directly by Tim and is stated plainly in step 4.
**Suggested cross-references:**
- A2 (Two Ways to Open the Proposal Tool) should link here as the next step.
- B3 (The Proposal Editor) should link back here.
- C2 (What's Included in the Standard Proposal) should link here for the Additional Images page, since the 4-image limit is what determines that page's contents.
**Writer notes:**
- The outline says supporting images "fill the Additional Images page." The sample export notes a known inconsistency where the page toggle reads "Additional Images" but the page heading reads "Design Images." This draft uses "Additional Images" only, matching the toggle. Do not fix or mention the mismatch here.
- Step 6 does not claim the date format used in the prefilled name, because the outline does not state it.
