    Default Sloped wall

    Hi,

    I wonder how to create a sloped wall in elevation?

    Thank you,

    Florin

    One way is creating an InPlace Component, but then you will need to cut openings into it and jump some hurdles to add doors and windows.

    Another way is to create a mass which has your desired slope, then create a curtain system. With this curtain system(make sure it has no grids), just then select the panel (keep hitting TAB until the panel is selected) turn it into a solid panel. Modify the solid panel to have the properties you want with the thickness and offset. Now, to have windows and doors treat it like you would a normal curtain wall (creating grids, then modifying the panel to be what you want: glazing, solid, doors, etc)

    Currently, walls sloped in section (or popularly called tapered walls) are not supported.

    I hope any of this helps.

    Also possible to make it as a stteply pitched roof component... although this obviously results in (roof based) openings behaving as they would in roof...

    ...depends on what you want to achieve - post an image of some kind if you still need more pointers...

    How about just editing the profile of that wall ?

    Daniel, you are onto something!!! I now think he just meant to slope the wall in elevation...not section.

    This would mean I am sounding like an old gong!!!!

    I would give you some rep points for clearly reading the guy's post....something I should have done before posting an answer to a different question...

    Could have been worst... could have tell the guy to go fill with water, then add coffee.

    Sounds too easy hey Luigi!

    maybe Florin will clarify, but I didn't think editing the profile of the wall is what was meant either... but then again maybe it was...?

    That's not a 3D solution though
