Edit Wall Profile Button

[max]

I just looked at one of the DG Cad videos for version 8 and there was a button to edit the profile of a wall. I can't find this button in 8.1. Could someone tell me where to find it?


Thanks

Have to select the wall first.

Max,

Just to clarify...where the Edit Profile button appears is the "Options Bar" - a dynamic content bar that constantly changes, based on what tool you're using or what object(s) you have selected.

Thanks for the responses.

The wall that I am trying to edit is a curved wall. The edit profile button does not appear when you select a curved wall.

Correct. You'll need to:

1. Draw a ref. plane in elevation and attach the wall to that if you want a simple slope.
2. Attach the wall to a roof if that is the case.
3. Create an in-place family with a series of voids to cut the top of the wall as needed.
4. Create a mass object and generate the wall from that.

How did you make a wall of that mass model?
I need to make a curved wall that connects to a sloped wall. The problem is that the curved wall starts at the outside and ends inside the house. Thus I want the finish texture as well as the isolation to stop at the edge of the sloped wall.
