Can we have medical and veterinary hospital shapes? Examples: human patients and animal patients, x-ray, surgery, diagnostics, medication, treatment, etc.

Hi ​@brightpawsolutions, thanks for this idea! We encourage anyone else who’s interested in this to upvote this post and share any additional details about your use case or what you’d like to see in this experience. For more information about how we manage feedback in this community, please take a look at this post:

As a workaround, you can create your own custom shape library from the Shapes panel under More Shapes and My Libraries. Simply draw and group shapes on the canvas, then drag them into your library.

You can also import SVG files or Visio stencil files as Lucid will generate a shape library from the imported file.

As a more advanced alternative, Lucid provides a developer framework to build fully custom shape libraries.

Please see the following documentation for more details on the above solutions:

Cheers!

Yes, it would be very helpful to have medical shapes used in a hospital, as well, such as medical bed, EKG machine, Infusion pump, CAT scanner, x-ray machine, IV bag and pole, and other medical equipment. These don’t have to be exact manufacturer models, but just a representation. i.e. Infusion pump can a small box with a screen and 9-digit dial pad/buttons, and maybe a tube protruding.
