Merge Logs

You can merge two logs into one. You can use this function, for example, when you want to remove an opening from a log wall. Use the function in the model or in the wall elevation.

• Select the function in the wall elevation
  1. Open the elevation of the log wall.
  2. Do either of the following:
     • Select Log Wall Layout | Uncut. Select one or more logs.
     • Select one or more logs. Right-click to open the context-sensitive menu, and select Merge Logs.
• Select the function in the model
  1. Activate the model window.
  2. Select a log wall.
  3. Do either of the following:
     • Select Log Wall | Uncut.
     • Right-click to open the context-sensitive menu, and select Merge Logs.
  4. Select the logs to be merged.
  5. Select Confirm.

Note

• Open the log wall elevation with the Edit Log Wall Shape function.
• The logs are merged by stretching both logs. This means that the logs to be connected must be parallel and on the same line, but there may be a gap between them.
• The ends of the logs to be connected may have bevels or notches.
• Use the merge function, for example when you
  • want to remove or move an opening in the log wall, cut by a window or a door macro.
  • want to remove an opening you have clipped in to a log wall.
