Been messing around tweaking the angle to get it close enough. any ideas anywhere??

IMHO, the user should be able to enter either top or bottom thickness and have the other one calculated.<BR /> <BR /> Karl Tue, 13 Sep 2005 17:27:52 GMT https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Modeling/quot-Battered-Wall-Tool-quot-non-functional/m-p/45526#M22961 Karl Ottenstein 2005-09-13T17:27:52Z https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Modeling/quot-Battered-Wall-Tool-quot-non-functional/m-p/45527#M22962 I actually just came across this problem aswell, I could do the math and figure out the angle to get the desired bottom thickness, but quite frankly.... I don't want to, and I shouldn't have to... I attached an image of exactly what I, and I believe Weeves, are refering to.<BR /> <BR /> cheers,<BR /> dan Wed, 14 Sep 2005 12:41:21 GMT https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Modeling/quot-Battered-Wall-Tool-quot-non-functional/m-p/45527#M22962 Anonymous 2005-09-14T12:41:21Z https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Modeling/quot-Battered-Wall-Tool-quot-non-functional/m-p/45528#M22963 Thank you Daniel, that is exactly the problem and conclusion I had.
