You can add the joint to only a part of the corner height by defining the upper (A) and lower (B) limits of the joint in relation to the floor base height.
Define the lower and upper limit by clicking in the model:

  2. Select a log in the model. The top height is the height of the selected log's top surface.
  3. Click the Select button next to the Bottom Side field.
  4. Select a log in the model. The bottom height is the height of the selected log's bottom surface.
You can also type the height position in log tiers in the text fields, for example 10h or 10H.
If you want to add the joint to the entire corner, leave the fields empty.
