Sloped Walls

Anonymous — Sat, 09 Oct 2010 06:57:05 GMT

Hey, im new to Archicad, currently using AC13. I REALLY need help, ive looking everywhere for an answer on sloped walls. I need a wall thats diagonal so it goes from level 2 down to level 1. (e.g. if you have a ramp i need a wall on either side of that, that lies up against the ramp).

Please provide steps in your response if there's a method

THANKS heaps!!!

First welcome to the forum. Second no need to make your query a poll, it makes no sense at all.
Now to your problem. It is quite easy. I would suggest you do as many before you and look in the
ref guide first or get some 1 to 1 training locally.
Ref guide is found in the Help menu or in the Documentation folder.
After you get though the guide then come back here for any clarification.
And finally please add a signature with your OS and version of AC.
Yes I am aware that you have 13

Again I feel you should spend some time looking in the Ref Guide.
Or just exploring the menus
Quite easy actually, but in the mean time ............

Not in the way you might imagine. It is easy enough to make a simple ramp using the tilted wall feature.

Okay. So i am an idiot.

What i meant was that if you put a tilted wall over a conventional wall such that their nodes touch, the tilt wall cuts the conventional wall.

It is possible to delete the Poll.
One needs to click the Edit button and in the appearing page there is a Delete Poll button after the poll question.

I deleted this poll so now it disappeared.
