Trimming and "untrimming" walls?

Anonymous — Tue, 23 May 2023 13:35:51 GMT

Hello,
I am just beginning working in Archicad, and I came across problem
with walls once trimmed with a roof.
Is there some way to "untrim" touch a wall? I need to extend this wall to a roof because roof has changed, or make this wall not catted at all, return to constant height.

thanks in advance

In the wall settings dialog, Model tab, there is a button for "Undo Roof Trim." If the wall is not trimmed, the button is greyed out. Columns, beams, doors, windows, and objects have the same button.

There is also a tile on the Info Box which says, "Wall trimmed", with a flyout where you can choose "Undo Roof Trim".

I would recommend you investigate Solid Element Operations, which keeps a relationship between elements. In your case, if the roof had changed, so would the wall.

To answer your question, you need to take a look under the Model tab of your Wall's Settings dialog.
