Not everything on a stage makes noise. The Bar Stool icon turns a verbal furniture request into something the venue can count, and drawing it is what turns a request into a task somebody can tick off.
Add it, label it, and save the plot. The next time this band books, the layout is already done.
Put it where it will really stand, not where it is convenient to draw. Furniture is drawn where the performer works, not where it is stored. Put it in performance position and the venue sets it in performance position. Stageplot Pro keeps every icon to scale, so the spacing you draw is the spacing the crew builds.
The detail that saves a phone call. Note who supplies each piece. Furniture is the most commonly assumed and least commonly confirmed item on any plot.
Bar Stool is not an audio source, so it adds no rows to the input list. It is there to make the drawing accurate: it turns a verbal furniture request into something the venue can count, and the channel count stays clean because nothing silent is padding it out.
Channel names travel with the plot. Export a scene file for an X32, M32, or Wing, or a channel name CSV for dLive, Avantis, SQ, DiGiCo, and Yamaha CL and QL. See the console guides.
