Hi all.
I'm busy doing a model of an existing building that we're going to do alterations to. I'm busy putting in the existing parking bays and want to know how one can 'join' two perpendicular bays' lines whilst retaining the bay as a component...see the image.

Not a serious problem, but....

Cheers!!!

The parking stripes are just small extrusions in the parking bay family ( nested from memory. )

You could make an in place family to close the corner if you wished.

Otherwise, if you have this condition recurring in this and other projects, make a new family for the corner car bays by utilizing one of the existing parking bay families as a base.

Rupert here is a corner bay that I use. the stripe is an instance length so all you do is stretch the ends to meet. The bay line will remain at the set depth.
