Cut a Wall

You can cut a wall from a desired point. As a result, the wall is divided into two parts, which you can manage as separate walls. You can target wall functions to these parts just as to individual walls.

  1. Select a wall.
  2. Do either of the following:
    • Select Wall | Wall | Cut Wall.
    • Right-click to open the context-sensitive menu, and select Cut Wall.
  3. Select the cutting point.

Note

  • You can remerge the parts of a cut wall by using the Merge Walls function.
  • The butt joint between the wall ends is affected by the keyword cut_wall in the system settings.

    cut_wall = 0: A butt joint is not formed between the ends. You can move a wall end by the grip point.

    cut_wall = 1: A butt joint is formed between the ends. If you wish to move the end of either wall, first remove the butt joint constraint. See Delete a Constraint.
