View Full Version : Exterior Walls drawn oppositely?

I have drawn all my exterior walls on my floor plan. I noticed that the Location Line (Constraints) is opposite of what I have intended to draw. My "Core Face: Exterior" line of my wall is shown as the Interior face of my core. Can I reverse this quick and easy? Or do I need to redraw my exterior walls.....

Select all the walls, then go to properties and set the location line to wall centerline. You will have to individually flip the orientation of each wall.

As AJ said select all of them and set to centerline, but you do not have to flip each wall individually...when you have them all selected just hit the spacebar and they will all flip

David,

That’s a new one for me. My erroneous conclusion was drawn from the fact that the right-click context menu would not flip all instances. Thanks!

If your walls are symmetrical about the core layer, then wall centerline will work. Otherwise you'll probably want to set your walls to Core Centerline, and then flip them.
