Triangular Walls

Anonymous — Mon, 16 Nov 2009 19:40:41 GMT

Hey folks, i was wondering if anyone could help me, i'm trying to draw a wall in ArchiCAD which is a triangular shape. I don't know if its possible with the wall tool. I've tried a few different things but nothing seems to be working.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks =]

I have found a way to do it...but not quite there yet.

I've drawn in a full wall and using the windows > openings > inclined top 12

But i need it to be horizontal instead of vertical. I can't find an x n y coordinates i can change... Any suggestions?

Thanks again.

Kawsome,

You are highjacking a thread, usually you create a new thread for a new question that is different to the one discussed it is easier to answer.

For your question it is usually easier to post a sketch of what you are trying to do.

Anyway if I can guess what you want the answer is in the help file under Trim to Roof, you might also read about Solid Element Operations.

I split the threads so now this is in its own thread.
