Combine two seperately drawn slabs into single slab

Anonymous

Hi All,

I have drawn two different floor slabs, of exact specification, and their edges are touching....

How do I join the two of them into one single slab?

Select one Slab, click on its edge to get the Pet Palette, select the Add to Polygon option, hold down the Space Bar to get the Magic Wand, click on the edge of the other Slab, select and delete the other Slab.

...while I have your attention, how should I go about creating a concrete ramp?

I would use the Roof Tool, there are various slope options: degree, percentage, (and run in feet, run in inches for Imperial Units).

Another option for ramps is to search the Object Tool for "ramp", there should be a straight and curved ramps.
