Making pilasters on the corner

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hi all,

I have a short question.
I need to make pilasters on the corner so they'd look like the ones in the picture. I did a contour pilaster shape with lines on the floor plan, and planned to create the 3d object from slabs, and then save them as gsm object in the 3d window, but I also realized that there'd probably be an intersection visible on the very corner, when I put each of them on each side.
Are there maybe any some others, more simple ways to do it?

thanks!

You don't say what version of Archicad you are using.
It is ideal to put this in a signature (go to the "Profile" link at the top of the forum) so that this shows on all your posts (together with you machine specs and operating system).

The later versions of Archicad will allow you to angle the side of slabs.
So you can still create your object but splay one side by 45°.
Then just mirror this object for the other side of the corner.

It's been in my signature all the time, so it's strange You cannot see it.
I'm using archicad 14, but where can I find that option ?
